After breast surgery, it is important to follow advice from your surgeon or medical team as specific instructions may vary depending on the type of surgery and your individual recovery process. However, it is generally recommended to wear a compression bra for a period of time after breast surgery.
The duration of wearing a compression bra can vary, but it is usually recommended to wear it for several weeks to months after surgery. This can help reduce swelling, promote healing and support the breasts during the recovery process.
It is important to follow your surgeon's instructions regarding wearing the compression bra. They can make specific recommendations about how long you should wear the bra each day, whether there are times when you can remove the bra (such as while sleeping), and when you can switch to a regular bra.
If you have any questions about wearing a compression bra after your breast surgery, always consult your surgeon or medical team for tailored advice.
