What is a breast prosthesis?

Following a mastectomy, many women choose to get a breast prosthesis. A breast prosthesis is basically an artificial breast form that will help to give a more natural shape and appearance, but it is entirely up to each individual woman whether or not she would prefer to use one. Breast prosthesis may be worn while a woman is deciding whether or not she would like to undergo breast reconstruction surgery, or while waiting for reconstruction surgery.

A breast prosthesis can also be an alternative to breast reconstruction surgery. Following a mastectomy, some women choose not have surgery or use a prosthesis. Caring Touch Medical has a wide array of breast prostheses for women to look through if they do choose to purchase one.

What is a breast prosthesis mastectomy sleeve?

Following a mastectomy, a woman may also be encouraged to wear a compression arm sleeve to help prevent swelling. During a mastectomy, lymph nodes are often damaged or removed as a result, which can lead to Lymphedema. Lymphedema used to be much more common than it is today, but it can still occur. In that case, a surgeon or oncologist may suggest you wearing an arm sleeve to prevent one of your hands from swelling up following surgery. An arm sleeve may also be encouraged because of the surgery itself, even if your surgeon isn’t considering Lymphedema to be a possibility.

Have you been recommended to wear a compression sleeve following your mastectomy? Not just any sleeve will do. Caring Touch Medical has Lymphedema and Mastectomy compression sleeves and we can help you find the right fit.
