Intended Use


CuraSupport Comfort Bras (breast form bras) with integrated pockests are designed for women who have had breast cancer surgery (for example tumour removal) who require a breast form or a breast shaper on the operated side for balance. 

These mastectomy or prosthesis bras serve as prosthesis holders.


Breast Prosthesis Fitting Process

 

For the perfect fit, it’s important that you consult individually with a trained, certified mastectomy fitter in a specialist shop, clinic or hospital. Your fitter’s experience and knowledge can help you identify your unique needs and then choose the right breast form.

We understand that with such a wide range to choose from, selecting a breast form can be a bit overwhelming! To make it easier, we code our products with a number and letter system. 

You or your fitter should begin with these three steps to get started:

Step 1: Cup fullness


Select the cup fullness you need. Is your remaining breast (1) shallow, (2) average or (3) full?

Step 2: Shape 


Consider the shape: (S) symmetrical, (A) asymmetrical or (E) extra. 

Generally, a symmetrical shape is best after a standard mastectomy and an asymmetrical breast form is best if you have had lymph nodes or tissue removed from under your arm.

Step 3: Size


Your fitter will properly measure your bra size to determine your breast form size. All Amoena breast forms are available in a wide size range. 

We recommend that you wait at least six weeks after your breast surgery, to ensure that incisions have healed. 

It is also important to make an appointment yearly because bodies change over time and as we age. Visit our Store Locator to find a nearby Amoena retailer who can provide the fitting service you need. 

 

Breast Form Conversion Chart


To determine the size of breast form required, find your bra size on the conversion chart. 


Example: 34B will require a size 4 breast form.

Putting it all together 
Now you have all the information you need to order the correct breast form. In the example opposite we have chosen a Contact breast form in a shallow cup and symmetrical fitting, bra size 34B which converts to a size 5.
