Surviving Breast Cancer In Style

Breast prosthesis

Breast prostheses are designed to give the natural feeling of a real breast. Breast forms are silicone based and can be worn directly on the skin or fitted inside a mastectomy bra. Breast forms are available in different shapes, sizes and skin tones to cater for individual needs.

This helps promote the regaining of confidence and wellbeing of the patient.

Mastectomy bras

Mastectomy bras come in different styles and colours. They are beautifully designed with padded shoulder straps, full cup coverage and inner pockets to hold the prosthesis firmly in place and give you comfort and support.

Swimwear and swimming prosthesis

Swimming costumes are designed with pockets in the breast cups to secure the breast prosthesis during activity. Although our breast forms are water resistant, a swimming prosthesis called a swim form is recommended for those that are regular swimmers.

Post-Operative wear

Fibrefill breast forms (soft, light and gentle on the skin) can be worn immediately after surgery and during treatment. Post-operative bras promote healing and assist with swelling that result from the surgery. Compression arm sleeves are available to prevent the onset on Lymphedema or manage the condition if it already exists.

Our highly trained professionals will assist you in restoring the balance of your body and avoid spinal curvature by fitting the correct bra and the correct shape, size and weight of the breast prosthesis.

Lymphedema treatment

Lymphedema can develop as a result of the removal of the lymph nodes. Treatment and information is available at our wellness centre as well as compression arm sleeves to help prevent the onset of lymphedema or manage it if it already exists.
