Answer: Bra Every surgeon has his or her own rules. I recommend 2 months after surgery. I also recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with. Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS), a member of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and a fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach TrainedDouble Board-Certified, Double Fellowship-Trained Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon

Answer: How Long After Breast Augmentation Can I Wear a Strapless Bra? It is not so much a question of how long after surgery you can wear a strapless bra, because my patients can wear a strapless wired bra or no bra at all anytime after surgery. I use no post-op bras at all and leave it to the patient to choose. The main concern is how much swelling and how long the swelling of the upper breast takes to resolve before the wedding. This varies tremendously between women depending on their pre-existing anatomy, tightness or lack of tightness of the breast/skin envelope, and implant size. Some women who have, for example, been pregnant and nursed may have a loose skin envelope, and when they have an implant that is not overly large, may look like they have not had surgery a couple of weeks later. On the other hand, if a woman has not had children, has a small cup size is and going up to a C, and particularly if she has a relatively short nipple to fold distance, she may have a very prominent upper pole with swelling that may take at least 2-3 months to settle. And then there is every one in between. In general, the upper pole swelling goes down sufficiently in the "average" breast augmentation to go to an event as you mentioned in about three weeks. The picture below is three weeks post op.

Answer: Strapless bra after Breast Augmentation Hi, thank you for your question. Depending on the type of surgery you will have done, your surgeon will advise you on when you can start wearing wired bras. Typically, in my practice, I recommend waiting 6 weeks after surgery for patients that have had inframammary incisions. This allows post-op swelling to subside and the appropriately sized bra to be selected without causing irritation along the incision. I hope this helps. Best of luck!

Answer: Underwire bra There is no absolute rule. Usually I have patients wear an underwire bra right after surgery to establish the infra mammary fold. You should discuss with your surgeon.Best,Michael Kulick MDSan Francisco, Ca.
