I had my breast augmentation done almost 3 weeks ago. I slept braless a couple nights but then read that you aren't supposed to do that for a few months. I also heard that women with bigger breasts should always sleep in a sports bra because it helps prevent sagging in the long run? Is this true? I had 375 cc's silicone put in and am about a C cup.
Answer: How long do I sleep in a bra after by Breast Augmentation? Thank you for your question. Each doctor recommends a different amount of time to wear your bra at night, so I would suggest checking in with your doctor to find out the recommended time frame is to wear your bra at night. For my patients I typically recommend wearing the bra for at least the first 2 weeks after surgery, but you can always continue to wear the bra as long as it is comfortable for you. Some women find that they like the extra support at night, and it may be more comfortable.If you would like more information regarding breast augmentation and the recovery process, you can download a free copy of my Breast Augmentation Planer at ABetterBreast.com.Best of luck.

Answer: Which bra after Breast Augmentation? I actually have most of my patients go bra less, or use a bandeau for the first several months to encourage the implants to drop in place. I want the implant to settle, rather than be pushed up.

Answer: How long do I have to wear a bra post-op? As short of a duration as possible is what I tell my patients!! But it really varies between patients... Patients who are narrow chested and have large implants generally have to wear a thong bra for one month, 24/7. Most of the others only need to wear one for one week.

Answer: Bra after BA Hi there and thanks for your question! I recommend patients wear a sports bra/compression garment for 4 weeks after any breast surgery. I suggest asking your doctor for his/her recommendation, as each surgeon varies in their post operative protocol. Best of luck and hope this helps!

Answer: Breast Augmentation and Surgical Bra I generally want my patients to wear the surgical bra that we provide (which clips in the front) for the first several days. Shortly after that they can start wearing a sport bra which is not too constricting. The sport bra is worn for about 6-8 weeks in by practice. At that time, we allow our patients to switch to a regular (underwire) bra.Every surgeon has their own recipe for postop and it is always best to check with your surgeon regarding the post surgical plan.Hope that helps.
