What is the best support bra to wear after explant and capsulectomy surgery?

Question

I'm a 32DD and after surgery I will be a 32 A or B. I'm thinking something with a front closure. What are some of the best ones on the market for comfort and compression / support?

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

Opinions on compression garments vary by surgeon.  Your surgeon may have you wear one type of compression during the first few days after surgery and then switch to a supportive sports bra.  I encourage you to speak to your surgeon on his/her preferences on what is right for you.

Dear Explant Journey,every plastic surgeon has his own postoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.Daniel Barrett, MD

There are many good support bras on the market.  I tell my patients to wear jog bras for compression.  The Marena group makes great compression bras.  Your surgeon may have some good recommendations, also.
