Dimensions
Extended description
Planning and design:
The elastic and airy fabric of the chest belt allows for uniform pressure around the chest, while providing gentle heating that is designed to protect the surgical area, increase blood flow to the area, and help speed up its recovery. The belt is designed to be comfortable to wear under clothing, flat and thin so that it allows for discreet use by not being noticeable.
Pain reduction:
A chest belt creates gentle pressure that helps reduce swelling.
After breast surgery, pressure and pain may occur in the chest. The belt is designed to bring the edges of the tissues that were cut during surgery closer together and help reduce the load on them by bringing them closer together, thereby reducing pain and speeding up recovery. The belt also provides support for the abdominal muscles in case of weakness.
Rehabilitation and recovery:
Using a belt allows you to perform basic activities without pain, thus encouraging movement, which improves blood circulation and reduces pain.

Our expert advice
- A. Surgical scar care: Be sure to care for the surgical scar according to the instructions of your treating physician. Keep the scar clean, and keep a bandage under your belt according to the instructions of your treating medical team.
- B. Activity and Mobility: Depending on the surgical procedure you had, and your stage of recovery, ask your doctor for guidelines regarding your activity and mobility. Ask for recommendations regarding the type and level of activities that are appropriate for you.
- C. Use at night: Depends on the condition and the doctor's recommendation. Usually, in the first few days after surgery, it is recommended to use the belt at night as well because it reduces pain and allows for better sleep, allowing the body to rest, which is important for recovery.
