Good on you for being so considerate!
I just had my surgery on December 16th. Here's what I can recall from the first couple weeks.
Good luck and feel free to PM or comment here if you have any questions!
I estimated what size soft front close bras I would need, based on my surgeon's predictions. There was a lot of swelling in my ribcage and chest for the first two weeks, so definitely leave a bit of wiggle room in your estimations. You will want compressive but not restricting bras. I recommend getting an extra wide ace bandage to supplement compression for when you need it.
Here are four bras I used. I'm about a 28DD right now at 5 weeks post op, working my way down to D or C.
Hanes women’s seamless Like a genie bra but better construction. Form fitting and generally supportive, not very compressive.
Fruit of the Loom comfort front close sport bra Love this one. Good compression and support. Bonus points: it's p cute.
Carole Martin full-freedom cotton bra Provided support but not much compression
Fruit of the Loom Women's Front Close Racerback Good compression. 2 pack!
stock up HEAVILY on cotton gauze, paper tape, aquaphor, and steri strips. steri strips are amazing. my surgeon placed inch long pieces all along my incisions, and told me to keep them on until they fell off. as they fell off i replaced them with longer pieces because the swelling made me feel like i was going to pop open. i pulled them off in the shower every few days to replace with clean pieces and i wore them for a few weeks after i had my stitches taken out, really until i felt like my skin had come back together. i liked to put bandaid brand gauze pads over my regular thin gauze for cushioning under clothing and to keep aquaphor on the skin. aquaphor will be really helpful in keeping incisions moist so they don't scab but also will help the gauze not stick to any pus or blood within the incisions.
also a nice fan will help keep you comfy and is great for air drying your skin after showers before reapplying tape and gauze (:
i found this bra to be the absolute comfiest. the fabric is thick and soft and the back is mesh for ventilation.
<3 don't cry. I left my first consult in tears too, and I'm now 6 months post-op.
If he wasn't even willing to try and go through the appeals process if necessary, then go to another surgeon. Most areas have plenty of them. There's no reason you can't appeal a denial, and it's not at all unheard of to be successful in the appeal process. So don't give up hope, just buckle down for a fight. Your surgeon should be leading that fight for you, that particular one was unwilling but that doesn't mean others won't be.
Regarding bras to help you in the meantime, I recommend:
This is what I wore religiously prior to surgery. It kept the weight off of my rib cage, which does mean it's on your shoulders instead, but for me that was necessary. For you that might not work if you think the nerve issues are from your shoulders, but you can always try it and return it if it doesn't work. They are workhorse bras though, can't recommend them enough in general. I was an M cup prior to surgery to give you some idea of how much of a workhorse they are. If you watch their prices, they will fluctuate, sometimes getting down to pretty cheap when they get new stock in.
Be careful with the sizing though, the cups are large than average for each cup letter and the band runs small/tight for the measurement.
This is the best sports bra ever IMO. It's comfortable, holds me firmly, and dries out quickly once you take it off. I would wear it 24/7 if I could. You don't have to buy it in that pack though, you can find it for sale individually, just providing the link so you have the model/style.
I can give plenty of other recommendations, but I can tell you that those two are the ones I suggest the most as being significantly better than most other bras in our size range.
I'm two weeks post-op.
People here all have fantastic suggestions so far!
I used:
Hi! We actually just received our first shipment of bras from the manufacturing facility this week, so we don't yet have any before-and-after pictures for you to compare to — hope to in a few months!!! I will just say that the silicone we use in the JellyBra is the exact same stuff you used in regular silicone sheets like here and here, I just know how frustrated I was when I tried those because I had to keep replacing them (like every week!) and because they took time every day to reapply, so that's why I specifically made the JellyBra to be durable and convenient :)
If you would be willing to share before-and-after photos I would love to send you a free JellyBra and share your progress on our website and social media. I’ll provide cute Jelly-branded nipple covers, and your face definitely doesn’t have to be in the frame (but if you’re smiling for the camera I’m here for that too!)
I do have advice for promoting wound healing, but it involves a gel, look for a collagen hydrostat like this: coloplast Woun'Dres .
I haven't used this particular one, I have another type that is no longer made. I am generally pretty slow to heal, and the collagen gel is like magic, it helps close the gap and protect the new skin forming do it knits together faster. It does this partially by keeping the moisture at the right level. I've very surprised that this stuff is not more widely used. I just ordered some for my recovery. Ask your doctor if it's worth trying.
I’m 8 days post surgery and my doctor has me wearing the Carol Martin Full Freedom bra. Based on the Amazon reviews, it seems like a super popular choice after BR surgery.

I hear you that it’s tough! The back sleeping has been tough for me. And they really mean it when they say don’t lift more than 5 pounds. I carried a half gallon of milk a block and my breasts were sore for a few hours after that.
No problem - below are the links (all amazon) along with sizes that worked for my pre-surgery size at a 34/36GG (bigger band sizes to accommodate volume)
Hope this helps!
My surgeon told me 45 degree angle is good. I got one of these kind of pillows and a small neck roll. It works okay.
I had my surgery back in January and I swear by bio oil I use it twice a day, every day and my scars are super light now. I'll post updated pics tomorrow
Have you tried a bra liner? It’s a little pad that goes under your underwire. It makes a world of difference with chafing for me.
