After a breast operation, it is important to follow the advice of your surgeon or medical team, as the specific instructions may vary depending on the type of operation and your individual recovery process. However, it is generally recommended to wear a compression bra for a certain period after a breast operation.
The length of time to wear a compression bra can vary, but it is usually advised to wear it for several weeks to months after the operation. 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 may give specific recommendations on how long you should wear the bra each day, whether there are times when you can remove the bra (such as during sleep), and when you can switch to a regular bra.
If you have questions about wearing a compression bra after your breast operation, always consult your surgeon or medical team for tailored advice.
