    Hi girls, I had my op yesterday and I’m so pleased with them. I’ve got a Brest band on and it’s so painfull I feel like I can’t breath I don’t have pain anywhere else other than that. I haven’t slept coz the bands so tight. Does anyone know if I can take it off and have a rest just to be able to take a few deep breaths?

    Was it the nurse that put it on? I have one too and I wasn’t sure how tight it was meant to be it was giving me a bad back it was so tight, I asked the nurse at my 1 week PO check and she loosened it so much I had basically bruised my chest I had it so tight haha! I take mine off for little breaks throughout the day too just for a breather it won’t harm your implants it just helps them settle into place quicker 🙂 hope your recovery goes well xxx

    Yeah she put it on so tight ? It’s really digging on one side I just want to take it off. I’m going to change my bra coz it’s got stitching down the side that’s digging in also. Thanks Hun I think I’ll give them a little brake so I can breath properly. Xx

    30 days I was told Tracey! I’m 15 days PO now so 15 more to go haha! Can’t wait it doesn’t bother me too much but I don’t wear it anywhere near as tight as some girls I don’t think so that’s probably why! Xxx

    I had to wear it for 4 weeks. They said as long as it’s putting pressure on the implants to help them drop then it’s tight enough xx

    I’ve loseend it off a bit now but I can’t tighten it again coz the left boob is so sore I feel like someone is pulling something trough it. Is this normal? Xx
