Review on Comfortable And Supportive Women'S Sports Bra For Post-Surgery Recovery - YIANNA Front Closure Brassiere by Tom Lawson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Surgical bra for cancer recovery

The most comfortable of the dozen bras that look like this one. I'm using it as I recover from a biopsy and anticipate a lumpectomy and sentinel node biopsy.I like the: * adjustable straps * hooks for the front closure * racer back * soft, smooth, stretchy cups made of two layers of fabric * supportive padding around the bottom and outer side of the cups * soft elastic band along the bottom * adequate coverage to minimize bulging out around the bra edges * soft lower edge of the hook strip. Other similar bras had a sharp lower edge * expectation of gentle post surgical supportEbay recommended size Small for me, but Medium fits better. My other bras are 34 A and B.I'm hand washing it to maximize its life expectancy. It seems to be a bit delicate. I gently squeeze out the water and hang it from the center back to dry.About This Item states it has "subtle crystal decoration" and "Garment infused with Vitamin E micro capsules". I'm not aware of any.Product Description states that it has removable shoulder straps. They only unhook in the front for adjustment, not in the back.Even though the cups are thinner fabric and stretchier than I'd like, these features make this bra more comfortable right now than my usual bras. I expect that this bra will serve me well post surgery. I'm wearing it around the clock now.I hope this helps you make a good choice.
