The Post-Surgery Bra That Can Make or Break Your Recovery

After breast surgery, the last thing you want to think about is your bra. But here’s the truth, the first bra you wear after surgery matters more than you think.


The wrong bra? It can rub against incision lines, cause pain, slow your healing, and make an already tough recovery even harder. The right bra? It supports your body, eases discomfort, and helps you move again with confidence.

Why the Right Post-Surgery Bra Is Essential


After surgery, your body needs gentle support that promotes healing, not hinders it. A good recovery bra should:


  • Provide front closure so you’re not struggling to pull it over your head.

  • Be soft, wireless, and breathable to avoid irritating tender skin.

  • Sit below incision lines so it doesn’t press where it shouldn’t.

  • Have pockets for prosthetics or ice packs, giving you flexibility as you heal.


Meet the Ellen Bra


That’s exactly why the Ellen Bra by World of Pink Foundation was created. It’s soft, comfortable, and designed specifically for post-surgical recovery. With its racerback style, adjustable Velcro straps, and inner pockets, it’s more than a bra, it’s part of your healing journey.


Women love it because it’s: ✅ Supportive without being restrictive ✅ Adaptable with prosthetic or ice pack pockets ✅ Comfortable enough to wear all day, every day during recovery


Support Beyond the Bra


At the World of Pink Foundation, we believe no woman should go without the care she needs. That’s why we provide education, fittings, and access to bras like the Ellen Bra for women in recovery.
