I am exactly 5 weeks post breast augmentation. I have to go to an event for work, however, the outfit that I am wearing looks best when I am wearing a push-up bra with underwire. I will only be at the event for about 3 hours. I was wondering if it is safe to wear this kind of bra at this stage of my recovery, I don't want to mess anything up. Thanks!!

Answer: Can I wear an underwire, push up bra 5 weeks after breast augmentation? Thank you for sharing your question. Each surgeon has their own protocol for wearing of a normal underwire bra after surgery, so be sure to clear one’s use with your doctor. That said after 5 weeks it is unlikely that any issue would arise from use for a few hours. Hope this helps.

Answer: Post Operative Care, Management, and Protocol Hi beth123_44, I understand your concern. It is best that you consult your plastic surgeon regarding post operative care and management (i.e including wearing of bra) specific to your case. Your surgeon knows your condition well and has preferences on when and what to use for faster healing and recovery. Post operative care and management depends on the type of surgery performed and the technique used during surgery among other factors.
