I am 4 1/2 weeks out from surgery and loving my new boobs!!! I am sooo tired of these sports bras though and wondering how long before I should start buying new bras? They look like they are dropping quite well, one more so than the other but that is normal. I know that they say could have swelling for several months but surely I am not expected to wear these silly sports bras forvever!!! 475cc Saline under the muscle is what I got, increased me from 32B to 34DD (sized today)
Answer: Wait for the implants to mature At one month you can buy a few bras, preferably without underwires. The breast shape and size will change over the next 3 to 6 months. I would not replace your entire wardrobe until it has been at least 6 months.

CONTACT NOW Answer: When to switch over to a bra Hi, Thank you for your question. In my practice we suggest the patient wears the sports bra for at least 4 weeks but this can vary. Once the breast/implants drop to a desired position we then suggest that our patients move over to an under wire bra as long as their incisions are fully healed. The wired bras will prevent the implants from dropping more if you are happy with where they are positioned. Hope this helps Dr. Dillon

Answer: How Long Should I Wait to Buy New Bras After Breast Implants? As a general guide, at 6 weeks post op most of the swelling has settled and you can really start to appreciate how things are going to look. At this point I advise my patients to go out and be fitted for new bras. Keeping in mind it does take 3-6 months for the breasts to fully settle into position.

Answer: New Bras After Breast Augmentation I recommend a no underwire seamless bra during the initial 6 weeks. The Coobie brand is almost universally liked by my patients. After 6 weeks you should be fine to purchase any bra brand you like.

Answer: Buy New Bras In These Stages The patient can return to a wired bra (and buy new ones) once the incision has healed. This is typically at 4 to 6 weeks. By this time, the patient will have had their one-month follow up, so they can confirm with their doctor. By 4 to 6 weeks, the majority of swelling will have decreased as well. You should have your final result at about 3 to 6 months after the procedure. So don't spend your entire bra budget at week 4. I hope that answers your question on when to buy new bras. It’s great that you’re doing this research. I always say that the best patients are informed patients. You might also want to research your options for breast implants. Choosing the right implant is the number one concern among women considering breast augmentation. Did you know, there’s actually a way to select a implant shape, size, and profile that is perfect for you? A term that I use with my patients for the perfect implant is the “Pony Implant”. So what do I mean by “perfect”? Well, a Pony Implant has three qualities to it. First, the implant meets your beauty goals. For example, you want to your breasts to look fuller while still appearing natural. Second, when you chose your Pony Implant, you walk out of your consultation 100% confident that you’ve chosen the right shape and size for you. In other words, you won’t be second guessing your decision, and you won’t be afraid of having gone too big or too small. And third, after your procedure, you are thrilled with your results, and say, "I’m so happy. This is exactly what I wanted!" That’s the Pony Implant. And the great news is that there is a simple process to go about finding yours. This issue of selecting the right implant is so important when it comes to patient satisfaction or dissatisfaction that, again, I really encourage you to learn more about it. Thank you for reading and best of luck on your journey!

Answer: Ready to shop! Hello Best Money Ever Spent (Great User Name!), You can shop now, I just wouldn't make any La Perla/Agent Provocateur type investments quite yet. You still have another few months they may change and even if your breast size stays the same, how your bras fit may vary. Underwires are usually okay after a month, but you must heed your surgeon's direction on that. Recommendations are based on specifics related to your case, they may have their reasons for keeping you in a sports bra this long. Talk to them, then go shopping!
