Product Description & Benefits: Featuring Comfort + Technology and made with a skin-friendly adhesive technology on back that enables the breast form to attach directly to the chest wall, the symmetrically shaped, average to full profile Amoena Classic Contact Breast Form creates a more direct contact and provides a strong bond and secure fit. Due to its adhesive surface, this form relieves the shoulder and neck area and helps preventing shoulder strain and lymphedema. Being that the form is adhesive, it offers the advantage of eliminating the shifting problems associated with standard, non-adhesive forms since such forms do not attach to the body and may cause the form to move a little bit. This adhesive form stays in place and does not shift around. Additionally, because this form is adhesive and attaches directly to the chest, it be worn with regular bras and does not require wearing a bra with a form pocket. If you wish to wear your adhesive form with a pocketed bra, you can do so by using the back pad that is also supplied with this breast form. The form does not require skin supports and the upper chest as well as underarm extensions help replace missing tissue. This average to full profile symmetrical form is designed for women with an average round profile where there is an equal amount of breast tissue on the top and bottom of the breast, typically leading to a more round appearance in the upper cup area. Additionally, the form can be worn by women requiring both bottom and upper breast support and coverage, typically leading to the most round appearance in the breast. The form is symmetrical and you need to specify the side of the body (right or left) on which it will be worn. The breast form (prosthesis) is designed to look and feel similar to the natural breast in weight, shape, color and texture. This breast form is appropriate for all types of mastectomy/breast cancer surgery (radical, simple, partial, bilateral), breast reconstruction, and breast conserving procedures.

The breast form comes with a cover. This breast form also includes a breast form care & cleaning supply kit that includes 2 protective foils (to put on the adhesive back during storage to protect against dirt and lint), 1 back pad (in case you want to wear the form in a pocketed bra), 2 bottles of Soft Cleanser (to wash your breast form and the adhesive back area), 1 tube of Skin Balance Gel Cream (to sooth and soften the neck and breast area, especially after wearing your breast form), 1 brush (to brush off dirt, lint, and other particles that collect on the adhesive back), and 1 marking pencil (to mark where on your chest the breast form should be attached).

The primary benefit of this breast form is that it restores balance to the body by replacing the weight loss in the breast area following a mastectomy. The breast form helps reduce spine curving and shoulder problems caused by weight asymmetry after a mastectomy. The breast form helps a woman restore the natural silhouette to the body for good mental and emotional health. Most importantly, a breast form helps a woman look and feel feminine, attractive, confident, and comfortable.

Comfort +

• The Comfort + layer provides improved wearing comfort by absorbing excess body heat from the chest wall which reduces overheating and therefore perspiration behind the form-The result is the ultimate comfort.
• Comfort + technology can enhance adhesion, due to less perspiration, for a more secure bond.

Find Feminine & Comfortable Mastectomy Bras: A breast form (prosthesis) is only as effective as the bra that carries it.

While there are many bras on the market, there are only a few that can carry a breast prosthesis properly. The Mastectomy Bras offered in the Store are specially designed for this purpose. In the Mastectomy Bras area, you can find the widest selection of fashionable, attractive, and comfortable bras, including Regular/Average Figure Bras, Full Figure Bras, Bras (w/Built-in-form), Underwire Bras, Front Closure Bras, Leisure & Sleep Bras, Post-Surgery Bras, and Camisoles.

Among the types of accessories that you can find include bra inserts, push-up and filler pads to help fill out the bra and add coverage, bra extenders to extend the bra and make it wider, bra pockets that can be sewn into a bra or swimsuit to create a post-mastectomy garment, silicone nipples, balanced-fit-cushions to help you avoid bra twisting and hide hanging underarm flesh, shoulder straps to prevent straps from slipping off the shoulders, washing solution for washing bras, breast forms, and form covers, and other beneficial accessories.

Instructions For Use: Gently handle the breast form and attach it directly to the chest wall. It is important to handle the breast form gently, as repeated pulling or squeezing of the form may cause damage to it over time. If you need help to figure out where exactly you should attach the form on your chest, you can put on your bra and use the marking pencil that is supplied with the form to determine where you should attach your breast form. If you would like to wear your adhesive form in a pocketed bra, simply put the back pad that is supplied on the adhesive back and then insert the form inside your breast pocket as you normally would. When not wearing the breast form, it is recommended to store the breast form in the box that it came in and keep it away from heat. This will help maintain the shape of the form and prevent accidental harm. When not wearing the adhesive form, put the protective foils on the adhesive back to protect against dirt and lint.

Breast Form Care: Taking care of the breast form will prolong its lifetime and ensure long-lasting comfort and satisfaction. This breast form comes with a cleaning supplies kit that includes 2 protective foils (to put on the adhesive back during storage to protect against dirt and lint), 1 back pad (in case you want to wear the form in a pocketed bra), 2 bottles of Soft Cleanser (to wash your breast form and the adhesive back area), 1 tube of Skin Balance Gel Cream (to sooth and soften the neck and breast area, especially after wearing your breast form), 1 brush (to brush off dirt, lint, and other particles that collect on the adhesive back), and 1 marking pencil (to mark where on your chest the breast form should be attached). It is important to care for the adhesive back by washing it after each use. First, wet the adhesive area with lukewarm water.

Then for 1 minute, use the brush that is supplied to brush off any dirt, lint, or particles that have collected on the adhesive back. Afterwards, rinse the adhesive back and let it dry naturally. When not wearing the adhesive form, put the protective foils (supplied with the Kit) on the adhesive back to protect against dirt and lint. This breast form can be hand washed in lukewarm water with mild soap or with specialized washing solutions such as TruKleen Washing Solution. The form can be dried with a towel, but without wringing or rubbing. Do not use perfume, powder or hot water directly on the form.
