I had the fat transfer to breast procedure 2 weeks ago in UK. The clinic does not use the Brava procedure but do know of it. I used Brava 4 weeks prior to the procedure and started using it a week after the procedure which was a week ago. I have been wearing Brava after the procedure for 10 hrs a day in the evening/over night. Can I wear it for longer? How long (months) should I wear Brava after the procedure before taking a break? Are there food/drinks to avoid that may decrease final results?
