Pockets. The main difference between a normal bra and a mastectomy bra is an inner pocket which is integrated into one or both of the cups. These cups are designed to hold a prosthesis or breast form in a way that matches your natural breast. Most mastectomy bras are ‘bilateral’ meaning that both sides are pocketed.
However, bra is not just about pockets. It provides proper shape and symmetry to the physical body. A good mastectomy bra is designed with your comfort, security and femininity in mind. A number of unique design features go into making sure post-surgery bras meet this goal. Like, it should provide balance and support to back/spine and shoulders. It is designed to fit the ergonomic needs of the body to avoid any pains or discomfort. Risk of Developing Breast Cancer
