I am curious as to what an internal bra is? I've read about doctors doing it with a breast augmentation. I am just curious as to when or why it is used. Thank you for your time.

Answer: Internal Bra? Thank you for your question. The "internal bra" is a surgical scaffolding that is placed around the breast implant and is often used in complicated breast revision surgeries. I typically only recommend the use of the internal mesh (such as Galashape or Strattice) in patients that are at a higher risk for implant displacement or have very thin breast tissue. Hope this helps and best of luck to you.
