Should I wear a sports bra to bed after a breast lift?

I would recommend calling your plastic surgeon for clarification. We place our breast lift patients in a compression bra after surgery, and ask them to wear it for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, they may wear a different sports bra or non-underwire bra for the remaining 4 weeks. T

Whether you should or shouldn't wear a sports bra depends on what kind of lift you had and what your personal plastic surgeon recommends.  Only he or she can determine if a sports bra vs. a vest with cups is the appropriate surgical garment.If you were my patient and you had a Benelli mastopexy, I personally think a sports bra is a good idea.  On the other hand, if you had a standard lift with an incision in the inframammary fold, I think wearing a bra is a terrible idea because the bra would hit the incision in your inframammary fold and potentially disrupt it and/or cause an infection.At this point, I think it is important for you to call your personal plastic surgeon and get his or her take on whether a sports bra is appropriate.

Thanks for your inquiry,  please call your surgeon's office to discuss.  His/her staff should be able to answer this question.  In my practice, I decide when patients advance to  fashion bras,wire bras, etc. Good Luck.
