Post-surgery bra & swimwear guide
1. Mastectomy sports bras
See my selection of pocketed and non-pocketed mastectomy sports bras here
2. Post-surgery front-closure fastening bras
After breast surgery, you’ll surely need a comfy bra that feels soft on your skin and protects you just right.
A bra with a front closure is easy to put on as your mobility might be limited, see 5 front-closure bras
3. Organic cotton bras
An organic cotton bra is made with a vision of being gentle for the environment. No artificial inputs are used, so it’s the most skin-friendly cotton you’ll find. If you have a latex allergy you wanna go ultra-soft and choose 100% cotton. See bras 80% to 100% cotton
4. Pima cotton bras

Pima cotton is known as soft and durable cotton. It is a superior type of cotton, similar to Egyptian cotton. Great on bras. See 6 Pima cotton bras

Mastectomy swimsuits look like any other well-designed swimsuit. But these post-surgery one-pieces have discreet pockets for one or two prostheses.
