How long do you wear a compression bra after a breast surgery?

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 certain period after breast surgery.

The duration of wearing a compression bra can vary, but it is usually advised to wear it for several weeks to months after the 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 may provide specific recommendations on how long you should wear the bra each day, whether there are times when you can remove it (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 surgery, always consult your surgeon or medical team for personalized advice.
