I'm worried about going back to work completely flat as a pancake because in have to wear a really tight ace bandage like bra or wrap. Can you help me understand the after care. When I would be able to wear a normal wireless padded bra post surgery? Thanks.
Answer: Compression after Explantation Thank you for your question. Compression after Explantation is recommended to reduce the risk of fluid accumulation and to encourage tissue adherence. Postop protocols vary by surgeon. Discuss with your surgeon.

Answer: Wearing A Compression Bra After Implant Removal The #compression #bra acts as a “dressing,” holding the breasts in position. If the bra feels too tight or hurts, switch immediately to sports type bra that feels comfortable. You should wear the bra at all times for at least three weeks. You will probably be more comfortable if you do not wear an underwire bra but you should always wear support. It is always recommended to call and see your surgeon to discuss your concerns as each has their own post-op suggestions based on each patient's individual situation.

Answer: How long do you have to wear compression bra after implant removal? The reason for the compression bra/ace wrap post the explant surgery is to compress the loose skin and help take the tension off the skin. The less tension there is on the skin the more the skin seems to shrink. Realistically after 2 weeks of wearing a compression type bra or wrap is efficient, and switching to a bra if your choice after 2 weeks should be fine, unless your PS office recommends otherwise.
