macom bra Started by: Laura

Go for a back size bigger than normal cuz of swelling etc so go for medium x

I was told to get my usual back size for macom and one up for others xx

Not sure, i think there is a phone number on the website u could maybe ring and ask? When is ur op xxx

Im a 33 back size so wear a 34. I ordered a 34 and it fitted fine before op… just a bit ugly. Lol. I only had an uplift. I’m a D cup (sometimes a DD) after the strapping was taken off on day 6 post op, that’s when I had to wear my bra.. nurse tried on my marks and Spencer zip up front but it didn’t come anywhere near me so she tried my macom on. (I was lying down feeling faint which is why nurse was putting bra on me) hubby had to help her put it on me. It was snug! At home my boobs swelled and omg the bra was tight and uncomfortable. My boobs were bulging out the top and I had to undo the first clasp and it still dug in. I couldn’t stand it. I cried. I took painkillers. It lasted for ages.

I also had a tummy tuck and it was worse than the pain from that.

I wish id bought a bigger size…. plus uplifts make you slightly smaller!

Im a 33 back but I’d read that the macoms are quite giving so I bought the small. So glad I did. It fits perfectly. Only worn it once cos I actually prefer my high impact sports bra from asda. I bought the macom in white and its so see thru and clings to you nipples. So unflattering xx

It’s my macom that’s more supportive than all the rest I have and scars can breath through the material. The macom is made with seams on the outside…But its not comfy at all.

My other sports bra’s let my boobies jig about in car and when i’m laying down they fall out the sides or the strap underneath rubs my incision line.. but I suppose we all like different things
