Should I Wear a Sleep Bra at Night to Keep Breast Implants in Position?

March 13, 2013
Asked By:blueyes321 in Little Rock, AR

I'm 4 months post-op with 450cc Saline unders. Should I sleep in a bra to keep the implants in position? I'm afraid that sleeping on my side or back might cause the implants to migrate to places they shouldn't be. My PS didn't think I should worry about this and left the decision up to me.
