We offer three options based on your recovery stage and surgical needs:

• Larissa Bra: Best if your surgery required surgical drains. Features specialized drain management tabs to keep drains secure and comfortable.
• Serena Bra: Ideal for recovery after drains are removed or if your surgery didn't require drains.
• Shirl Bra: Featuring a double zipper that allows for adjustability in the front closure. Perfect for accommodating changes in size as swelling decreases.

All three bras provide gentle support for your chest without restricting breathing.

Many thoracic procedures benefit from supportive post-surgical bras. These include thoracotomy (surgical opening of the chest wall), chest wall reconstruction after trauma or tumor removal, rib resection or repair, lung surgeries accessed through the chest wall, esophageal surgery, mediastinal procedures, and thoracoscopic (minimally invasive) chest surgeries. Any procedure involving incisions in the chest wall or between the ribs benefits from the stabilization, compression, and protection a thoracic surgery bra provides during healing.

A supportive bra provides several therapeutic benefits during thoracic surgery recovery. It stabilizes the chest wall to reduce painful movement at incision sites, provides gentle compression that minimizes swelling and supports proper tissue healing, reduces strain on chest muscles that may be weak or healing after surgery, and protects surgical sites from friction and irritation. The built-in pockets can also hold cooling inserts that provide relief and reduce inflammation around incision areas.

No—our thoracic surgery bras are specifically designed to provide supportive compression without restricting breathing, which is critical after chest surgery. The breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics promote airflow, and the design allows your chest to expand fully with each breath. Deep breathing exercises are essential after thoracic surgery to prevent complications, and our bras are engineered to support—not hinder—your respiratory recovery.

Yes! Our thoracic surgery bras are FSA and HSA approved, which means you can use your pre-tax health savings funds to purchase them. Post-surgical compression garments designed to support recovery from thoracic procedures are considered eligible medical expenses, making it easier to invest in the specialized support you need during your chest surgery recovery.
