A mastectomy bra is a distinguishing trait bra for women who have undergone a mastectomy (removal of breast). The surgery is performed on a woman after she has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Following surgery, a woman would need to buy a mastectomy bra and prosthesis. A prosthetic breast form is a silicone shaped like a breast to fill the area where the breast was removed. The mastectomy bra has sewn in pockets to hold the prosthesis in place. The bras distinctively are not sold in division or at a lingerie store. You will need to find a distinguishing trait store in your area that carry these bras or search on-line. Keep in mind mastectomy bras are more pricey than your normal bra price. If you have insurance, most insurance company will remunerate for the bras and prosthesis. Check with your insurance company to see how a lot of bras and prosthesis you are to permitted to have each year.

Nowadays, makers are making these mastectomy bras prettier and more comfortable. Having breast cancer and going through the surgery is hard enough. Why must you be forced to wear unattractive bras?

Anita International is one of the manufacturers that have developed beautiful, effeminate mastectomy bras. The Isabella style has a pretty embroidery design, anatomically-shaped beneath the bust band for added help (no underwire), and two pockets to hold the prosthesis. It comes in white, nude, black, and sexy red. This bra will make you feel like a woman again. Anita carries over 10 dissimilar styles of bras and they do carry big sizes. Depending on the style of bra, the size range from 32 up to 42 and cup size AA up to E. Anita is a little more highpriced than other brands due to their quality, design, and size range.

Another manufacturer that is reasonable in price is TruLife by Camp. They have a wide range of bras to choose from. Some of their distinguishing trait bras have front and back closures. The front closure bras are idealisti for women with restricted mobility due to lymphedema, arthritis, or surgery. Trulife also carries a sports mastectomy bra. This is a great bra for women who live an active life. You may wear this bra to the gym or for the duration of sport activities. The CoolMax material is used for the pocket to manage moisture and provide coolness to the skin. The sports bra has front closures and adaptable back closures.

Another bra that TruLife carries is a three-way convertible bra straps. The attached strap may be worn over the shoulder (as a regular bra), crossed in the back, or as a halter top style. This bra would be idealisti to wear underneath an evening dress, summer tank tops, and backless apparel.

Right after surgery, the idealisti garment to wear is a camisole. The camisole is light, loose, and soft to the touch. The pockets are likewise sewn in the camisole to hold your breast form. The camisole may also be worn beneath clothing.

Women need to be educated and conscious that they have a choice in selecting a mastectomy bra. If you go into a distinguishing trait store and they do not have the right bra for you, request that they order the one that will fit your needs.

Not good for D CUPS!!! Not Sticky! Don’t buy from SkyLux!
By Sasha Lotrian
I mistakenly thought that these were sticky, like the strapless ones and that the added straps would just add support. But NO! Not only are they NOT sticky, but the see thru straps are TOTALLY worthless for any support. I also know that I am a D cup, not a double D, but these things are more like big pasties. Oh and the straps are barely big enough to go around! I’m a perfect 34D and these straps are made more for someone who’s a 32B. This is worthless.

I want to return these but I bought them from skylux and they have a horrible return policy where I’ll just end up losing most of my money anyways, so I’m stuck with them.

Long story short, if you are a D cup DO NOT BUY THEM.

Do not buy them from SkyLux because their return policy is crap.

These are NOT sticky at ALL.

You’re better off buying them at Target.

Not what I expected
By LG
This silicone bra has a back strap that is adjustable, but small, uncomfortable, and does not stretch.(may work for size 32-34) The cup size also runs small. All straps are removable, but the bra is not like other silicone bras that are self adhesive, so it does not stay in place. I have owned other silicone bras and this one is a disappointment. The self adhesive silicone bras that you can wash and air dry to reactivate the sticky inner side are great…keep shopping!

A tricky fit
By The Frugal Shopper
I found it a little tricky to get the fit right as the material doesn’t slide very easy against the skin. Once I got the fit, I love it for strapless outfits. Like I said, it doesnt slide, so it stays where you need it. It has a natural feel as if you had nothing on at all. I love the front clip that makes it easy to get on and off!
