So im currently an A cup and i never usually wear bras because they are so u comfortable no matter the brand/fabric/type. Im always bra less and thats the great part of having small boobs. However im getting my BA soon and i will be a full C cup or small D. I will be wearing my surgical bra for at least a month but after my PS tells me i can wear any bra id like, is it ok to just wear a sports bra everyday besides when i sleep? Im not wanting to wear an actual bra unless for special occasions
Answer: Can I wear a sports bra everyday instead of an actual bra for support? Thank you for the question. There is no "standard" when it comes to the use of bras after breast surgery. I am an advocate for the use of supportive bras after breast augmentation surgery. In my opinion, the use of the supportive bra may help prevent breast implants from moving into the "paths of least resistance": down or out. In my practice, patients wake up with a surgical bra in place. This surgical bra, although not attractive, is supportive and used for about one month after surgery (some of my patients have been known to burn the bra ASAP). Then, patients transition to a soft sports bra. Wired bras are used when breast implants have reached their “final position” and patients have full sensation along the breast skin. Generally, the longer I have been in practice, the more I appreciate the use of supportive bras for the first several months after breast augmentation and revisionary breast surgery. Best wishes in your decision-making process and for an outcome that you will be very pleased with.

Answer: Can I wear a sports bra everyday instead of an actual bra for support? I would allow you to do this. Some of this depends upon the location of the incision. Some bras with wires may not be a great idea with an incision under the breast.

Answer: Breast Augmentation/Breast Implants/Anatomic Gummy Bear Implants/ Silicone Implants/Breast Implant Revision I appreciate your question. I would recommend that you discuss this question with your surgeon as every surgeon has their own respective post op protocol for his/her patients. Your surgeon is your best resource as he/she is most familiar with your medical history and how you are healing at this time. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck! Dr. Schwartz Board Certified Plastic Surgeon #RealSelf100Surgeon

Answer: What to wear after surgery Thank you for your question.I would not recommend wearing a sports bra 24/7 after surgery. A sports bra will hold the breasts up high and not allow them to drop and look natural. I would discuss this with your surgeon, usually we recommend a bra with cups and no underwire, they may even have something at their office that you can try.

Answer: Breast support after augmentation Good question and as with many thing in cosmetic surgery, there are a variety of options, and I think it makes sense to discuss this with the surgeon performing your procedure. It may be fine from their standpoint but it's important to check with them first.
