Post reduction compression bra?

Every doctor has different post op instructions so you should ask your surgeon what would work for you. The dressings vary from patient to patient. Some patients may be placed in a sports bra; others will wear a stabilizing elastic support strap. Your doctor will decide after surgery and in subsequent weeks, which dressing will suit your needs and how long you would need to wear them.

Thanks for the question.Generally to avoid the normal p.o. swelling, I recommend to limit the arms movement for two weeks. Also it's not advisable to carry weight and take the antiinflamatory painkillers drugs.Finally, I recommend you always use a therapeutic bra.Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Each doctor's office is a bit different in terms of post-op instructions.  If it is not an emergency then it can wait until the office is open. If you need to speak to the doctor ASAP then call him through his service.

Given that you are only a few days out from surgery, your bra seems to be too loose, and you are uncomfortable without good support, I tend to agree with you that more support would probably be best.  My best advice is that, even though it is the weekend, most surgeons are either themselves on call for their immediate postop patients like you, or they have a colleague who is available to answer such questions.  I would call the contact number that you were given by the surgery center for the doctor for after hours problems, or call the office to see if there is an answering service that can put you in touch with the doctor or his or her designated cross-covering colleague.  I think this is an important first step, because most doctors want to give input into this kind of thing themselves at this early stage after surgery.  In the event that you can't reach anyone from your doctor's office, my suggestion to you, and one that I would give my own patients in this situation, is to get a gently compressive sports bra that has good supportive cups for each breast (not a bandeau kind), fastens in the front, no wires, and nice soft "cottony" type fabric, and put that on until you can talk to your own doctor.  Again, this is only a stopgap measure that I suggest in the even that you can't reach your own surgeon, as it's always best to first get your own surgeon's advice about things like this, but if he or she can't be reached, then take care of the problem yourself sensibly until he can.  Good luck.
