The big C, that’s the dreaded word. Breast Cancer. The words that no lady ever wants to hear, but unfortunately so many do. The good news is that survival rates are on the up due to
medical advances, so that leaves you to focus on recovery after you’ve had a mastectomy and to look great in your own clothes again.
Gone are the days where a mastectomy patient has to settle for second best in the breast form and lingerie department. No more filling the breast cup with tissues or fabric and being uncomfortable all day.
Breast forms have come a long way in recent times. There are literally dozens of shapes weights and sizes to choose from, which will match as closely to your remaining breast as possible. There are also breast forms that can be used while swimming or exercising, so your lifestyle doesn’t have to change. For ladies who have had bilateral surgery, picking the breast size you’ve always wanted to be is now an option.
The federal government will cover the cost of your breast prosthesis up to $400, per breast, every two years for the rest of your life and many private health funds also cover the cost of post mastectomy bras, so it’s worth giving them a call.
