How long should I keep my breast band on for?

Hi, I’m 18 days post op and I’m abit unsure about what to do with my breast band. After my procedure my surgeon said that he wanted me to wear it for 4 weeks. However, at my 1 week post op appointment the nurse said that from 2 weeks I only need to wear it for 12 hours a day. I told her that the surgeon said 4 weeks, and she said that usually it is only 2 weeks and she would have a look in my notes.

So I don’t know whether to wear it now for only 12 hours or continue with 24 hours…

I’d appreciate some help, thanks x

Hey girl, did you get partials? I had partials (half unders, half overs) and wore the band for 3 weeks for 24 hours and then 12 hours for another 2 weeks. The point of the band is to allow the implants to settle in the desired position + to avoid it from moving.. I think it pushes down the implants to make it look natural. My implants look rather natural now despite choosing high profile 😊

Hi, yes I did. And oh ok thank you. I was just really unsure about what to do. At the moment they are looking quite low, and don’t look very full on the top so I was thinking am I now wearing it too long and making them look like that 😂 it’s still early days but I’m constantly overthinking that I’m going to mess them up.

Thank you for your help, il carry on wearing it x
