Following Mastectomy

Breast forms also called Breast Prosthesis or Prostheses are designed to look and feel similar in weight, texture, and colour to the natural breast. Breast Prostheses are worn outside the body in a close-fitting, supportive bra or a special pocketed bra. In addition to creating a symmetrical appearance, the  breast form will replace weight to restore the body’s natural balance. Even if you are considering reconstruction at some later time, it is important to wear a weighted form during the intervening time. following_mastectomy.jpg
