What to do with bras after surgery?
Problems with choosing underwear
- The seams of my underwear rub against my skin, causing pain in my post-operative wounds
- I can't lift my arms and I can't take my clothes off
- I want to hide the scars from treatment
- Skin problems can easily cause skin problems...
The survey results showed that many people who have breast cancer have concerns about their appearance, such as "anti-cancer drugs caused my hair to fall out," "I can't go to hot springs anymore," and "I can't change clothes in front of other people," as well as psychological concerns, such as the difficulty of accepting their post-surgery body, "it's painful to look at my naked body or to be seen by others." However, even more than these concerns, the most common issue was "pain from the scars after surgery." This was a concern shared by nearly 30% of the total participants.

For the pain of a wound
Many people are in trouble
To ease the pain of the wound, you need underwear that is gentle on your body after surgery. Many questions may arise, such as "What kind of underwear is gentle?" and "Are special bras safe?". According to the results of a questionnaire survey of postoperative patients, only about 30% of them had purchased special underwear. However, it seems that not all patients purchase special bras.

What kind of bra should I buy?
When considering post-surgery wound care, it is more important that the bra meets the criteria for underwear that is gentle on the body after surgery than that it be a bra specifically for breast cancer patients.

Comments from those who have purchased and worn the product
- I had a total mastectomy and purchased these for post-surgery. They fit perfectly and are comfortable without any chafing.
- It is stable for rehabilitation movements, and I am satisfied with how gentle it is to use overall.
- I used it when I was recovering at home after surgery. It's convenient because there are no metal parts so I can wear it during examinations.
- The snap front opening is very convenient for post-operative examinations. I have sensitive skin, but it feels good against my skin and doesn't feel tight, so it's very comfortable to wear.
