Answer: When you can wear an underwire bra post Breast Augmentation Different surgeons will give their patients different advice on this and it is best to seek the advice of your treating doctor. In my practice I advise patients to wear a soft post-operative bra until the infra-mammary incision has healed which is usually 4 weeks. They can they change into a soft underwire bra - ideally nothing that irritates the incisions and nothing that pushes the implant up or displaces the implant position

Answer: Underwire after a breast aug My general advice is to wait one month prior to wearing an underwire bra. (After a breast aug.) But - the most important thing is for any garment to not rub against a new surgical wound. So regardless of the surgery or incision - do your best to avoid any friction or trauma to the incision until it is well healed! Best of luck.

Answer: When Can You Wear Underwire after Breast Augmentation? I tell my patients that they can begin wearing an underwire bra around 6 weeks after breast augmentation. If their implants have completely dropped, then wearing an underwire should not be an issue. Some women who have implants that have not completely dropped, will need to wait longer before wearing underwire. If you implants are still high, then you don't want to wear an underwire yet and be pushing the implants up when they are still needing to settle. It is best to ask your surgeon for their recommendations.

Answer: Wearing underwire bras after breast augmentation I generally advise my patients that they can wear an under-wire bra from 6 weeks post-op.The reasons for this is quite simple. I don't want the "harshness" of an underwire pressing on a young surgical wound (most of my augmentations are done via an incision in the lower breast fold). This could potentially irritate the wound and compromise healing. Having said that, anytime from 3-4 weeks post-op the wound is typically well enough healed to put up with an underwire.However, it takes about 6 weeks before most of the swelling has gone so this is when patients are advised they should go out and invest in new well-fitted bras. This is therefore when they can/will wear underwire bras.
