We offer two excellent options for shoulder surgery recovery:

• Serena Bra: Ideal for recovery, featuring a racerback design that provides stable support and adjustability for a custom fit.
• Shirl Bra: Featuring a double zipper that allows for adjustability in the front closure. Perfect for accommodating changes in size and for those with significantly limited mobility.

Both bras feature front closures that don't require reaching behind your back or moving your surgical shoulder.

Many shoulder procedures benefit from supportive post-surgical bras. These include rotator cuff repair (one of the most common shoulder surgeries), shoulder arthroscopy for various conditions, labrum repair and SLAP tear surgery, shoulder impingement surgery, shoulder replacement (total or partial), biceps tendon repair, AC joint procedures, and frozen shoulder release surgery. Any procedure that limits your shoulder mobility and restricts reaching movements makes a front-closure bra essential for maintaining independence during recovery.

The timeline varies depending on your specific procedure and healing progress. Most shoulder surgeries require 6-12 weeks of limited mobility and movement restrictions. During this time, a front-closure bra is essential for daily dressing. Many patients continue wearing their shoulder surgery bra even after initial healing because the easy-on design and comfortable support make it preferable to traditional bras. Your orthopedic surgeon will provide specific guidance about when you can safely return to normal shoulder movements and regular bras.

Our shoulder surgery bras are designed to minimize irritation during recovery. The wide, adjustable straps distribute pressure evenly rather than creating concentrated pressure points on your shoulder. The soft, breathable fabric and seamless construction prevent rubbing against sensitive surgical areas. The racerback design keeps straps in place without slipping, which is especially helpful when you're wearing a sling or have limited ability to adjust your clothing.

Yes! Our shoulder surgery bras are FSA and HSA approved, which means you can use your pre-tax health savings funds to purchase them. Post-surgical garments that support recovery from orthopedic procedures are considered eligible medical expenses, making it easy to invest in the supportive clothing you need during your shoulder rehabilitation.
