I don't know the specific volumes. I was a 32A and I went to a 32D with my implants. They were saline. The incision was below my breast. My doctor did not direct me to wear any type of compression bandage or bra. However, my breasts are loose and swinging, and it feels uncomfortable. It also seems to go against what most recommend on this forum. I think the bottom will rest against my incisions, but it isn't painful. Thanks!

Answer: Sports bra after implant removal Hello,I think wearing a sports bra is a good idea as you generally will want some compression. Be sure to talk with your surgeon about this. All the best, Dr. BlaggAustin, TX

Answer: Just had an implant removal yesterday. I only had the removal - no lift. Is there any reason why I shouldn't wear a sports bra? The best advice will come from the PS who removed your saline implants. My patients like the support and compression the sports bra provides. The smaller the implant and the less the amount of time it has been since placement, the greater the chance the breasts will return to their preoperative state. The breasts will likely be flattening and drooping that can be corrected in large part with a breast lift. Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA
