Frequently Asked Questions About Mastectomy Bras that Snap in the Front
What is a mastectomy bra that snaps in front, and how does it differ from a regular bra?
A mastectomy bra that snaps in front is specially designed to accommodate your limited range of motion after surgery. Different from a regular bra, it is easier to put on and take off without causing irritation to the surgical site. It has softer seams, deeper side and front panels, and a wide underband to provide optimal comfort.
What material is used to make Kelly Bee Recovery’s snap front bras?
Our mastectomy recovery bra is made of a blend of nylon and spandex. This combination is soft and breathable, providing flexibility and just the right amount of stretchiness to allow freedom of movement.
What are the benefits of using mastectomy bras?
The mastectomy surgical bra is designed to promote faster recovery and reduce discomfort during this period. It provides a blend of support and compression to minimize swelling and improve the healing process. A snap front mastectomy bra helps to support the tender breast tissue and alleviate discomfort after surgery.
How can I choose the right snap in front bra for my cup size?
Right after the surgery, you are likely to experience some swelling, and it is advisable to choose a bra that is one size bigger than your usual size. Kelly Bee Recovery provides a handy guide to help you choose the right bra size according to your shirt size.
Can I wear mastectomy bras that snap in front with a prosthetic?
Yes. To wear your mastectomy bra with a prosthetic, choose a bra that fits well enough and provides sufficient support for the prosthetic. We also have a special mastectomy bra with prosthetic pockets for larger prosthetics.
How long should I wear post-mastectomy bras with snaps in front after surgery?
You should wear post-mastectomy bras for the period that your surgeon stipulates, which is typically between two and eight weeks. Note however that our bras are both comfortable and stylish enough to be worn even after recovery.
