Wearing bras after a BA?

thab
I am just wondering why some surgeons want their patients to do different things when it comes to bras after breast augmentation. I know a lot of surgeons recommend that a patient wears a surgical bra or some type of sports bra following a breast augmentation and others say that no bra should be worn for a couple of weeks. What method provides the better outcome?
