Choosing a Breast Prosthesis

GentleIf you are undergoing a mastectomy, you may be in the market for a breast prosthesis.  Amoena breast forms come in a variety of shapes, styles, and sizes and are designed to look and feel like a natural breast.

Weighted breast forms are light enough to keep pressure off the chest wall, yet weighted enough to keep the body balanced. This may be a good choice for everyday wear.

Non-weighted breast forms are lightweight, which makes them ideal for casual wear or immediately after surgery. They may also be more comfortable in hot climates.

After choosing a breast prosthesis, you may want to invest in a mastectomy bra, which comes with a special pocket to hold the breast form in place. Amoena post-mastectomy bras come in many attractive styles and colors; matching underwear can be purchased separately.
