Compression Bras, Bandages & Shapewear

What is a compression bra?

A compression bra promotes wound healing after breast surgery and is designed specifically for shaping the tissue correctly and symmetrically. The length of time for wearing the compression bra is decided by the attending physician. For breasts to be positioned correctly after reconstructive surgery with own tissue or implants, a compression bra must exert some pressure, but must not fit too tightly, as it would impact on the scars and cause pain.
 

What are the benefits of a compression bra?

  • Implant stabilisation
    This specialist bra uses pressure to prevent implants from slipping out of place after breast surgery or a breast augmentation to ensure that the desired results are achieved. It is therefore important to wear a compression bra, as one breast could otherwise be lower than the other or be deformed. The Stuttgart girdle ensures that the implants are fixed in their intended position.
  • Healing support
    The affected tissue will safely grow back together under the gentle pressure of the compression bra, while nerve fibres under a lot less stress and scar formation is minimised. Since the bra or bandage offers great support and helps shape the breasts correctly, the risk of inflammation and stretch damage is reduced.
  • Perfectly shaped breast
    Compression helps the breast tissue to reshape and the desired contours remain intact

How about not wearing a compression bra at all?

  • For women, who wear a bra without compression (e.g. a sports bra instead), the healing process after breast surgery can take a lot longer. The breasts can become asymmetrical, because the implants shift. A sports bra cannot be held in place by a Stuttgart girdle.

For lymphatic diseases

For lymphatic treatments, Anita has developed a specialist material with a 3D/raised dot texture on the inside. This texture has a massaging and draining effect on the subcutis and smaller lymphatic vessels. This activates and improves lymphatic drainage. It additionally promotes scar regression. Good moisture wicking and breathability ensure comfort and pleasant conditions for the skin. This material is used for the reduction of light lympoedema, haematoma and fibrosis.

After plastic surgery

A more rigid material was developed for use after plastic surgery, which also features the raised dots on the interior. This texture is slightly less pronounced, but has a similar massage effect on the skin. It promotes lymphatic drainage and the healing process. The fabric is a lot stiffer, has less stretch and therefore offers a higher compression rate. The material is suitable for use after plastic surgery like liposuction and lifts.
