Surgical bra vs bandages post-op? What's the difference?

Hello,Each Plastic Surgeon will have their own preferred post op protocol which they feel gives them the best results. When you have chosen your surgeon based on their training, skill and results then you can trust their recommendation for post op dressing or bra as well. All the best

The only difference is surgeon preference. We all have our own way of doing things that usually develop over time based on our experiences. Many times what we do is based on science but dressings after surgery are not. If you like the results the surgeon and are comfortable with him/her and the practice then you are making the correct decision. Best wishes for you surgery! 

Some surgeons prefer a surgical bra, some prefer to use bandages. It all depends on the surgeons preferences.
