Therapeutic mammoplasty reduction

Hi Woody14 , they are expensive but macom do a bra that expands to your size (you buy according to your back). They are compression bras, designed for post surgery. Otherwise, (or also) maybe ask your bcn / consultant about what size you should go for - I guess the surgeon has an idea how much tissue is being removed. 
good luck! Hope it goes well x 

Hi

i had lumpectomy, therapeutic mammoplasty and right side reduction last May. I was 38G. I bought post surgery bras from Sainsbury’s which zipped up at the front, and I was given a free one with hooks by my nhs trust. I bought my existing size. They were lovely and soft. I also bought some crop tops. I think they were a size 16. I used these until after my radiotherapy in January since that can cause shrinkage. In March I was measured at M&S , my cup size is down to a D. I am very pleased with the results. 

Hi - i had this operation 2 weeks ago - and was in same position re bras - i was a 36h and bought a selection of sizes from m&s / cancer research and asda which i took to the hospital and kept the labels on all of them so i could return if no good.      The winner for me was breast cancer research post surgery comfort bra in large size - they do not sell in cup sizes as have a lot of stretch (i am now a D cup  ). They are made from bamboo so nice and soft too,     

Your BCN can also give a lot of advice re bras (and they may even supply/ fit you in one when you come out of surgery.

Good luck with operation. 

Thank you for your reply. I’m really excited to get some much smaller boobs hopefully along with getting rid of the cancer x
