MARENA Original Bra - Post Surgery Compression Garment with Full Adjustability.

I purchased several bras post belt lipectomy and breast augmentation. After my initial error in sizing, I correctly measured, reordered the correct size, and I'm as comfortable as can be. This is the best of all the garments that I purchase for recovery It is of utmost importance to follow the measuring guidelines. When done correctly, this is the most comfortable compression garment that I have post op. I have other Marena bras as well, but this is my favorite. It holds my newly purchased breasts in place like my plastic surgeon wants while offering me the most comfort. I had suggestions of several other less expensive bras for post op, but this is so worth the price. The material that it is crafted from offers antimicrobial protection which is a really important part of healing from surgery. I like that I was wash and dry these and not worry about hanging them to dry which takes more time. Most importantly is the comfort is off the charts. Going through a surgery like this is not easy but the Marena bra gave me the most comfort of all undergarments that I purchased for my healing post operative period. To say that I went overboard in purchasing different bras is an understatement. I have tried a total of 8 other bras and this one wins, hands down! Note that I am also wearing a Marena faja type of compression garment in the photo (also another winner in my book).

I needed a post surgery bra after a lumpectomy with bilateral reduction surgery. I bought a few styles and this is my favorite. It is adjustable and provides just the right amount of support and compression. The band is low enough that it does not hit my sutures and it stays put. It does not ride up or roll up, even overnight or while I sit in my recliner. The fabric is smooth and soft and stays cool even on our hot summer days. It is by far the most comfortable of the bras I purchased.

This garment offers exceptional comfort and skin-friendliness, ensuring a seamless and irritation-free experience. Its material thickness yet gentle design makes it particularly suitable for post-surgical recovery following breast procedures, or for comfortable wear during physical activity since it provides support. The fabric is notably durable and easy to care for, requiring only simple washing instructions. Its very convenient since it has strap adjustment. I am confident you will find it a valuable addition to your wardrobe.

Quality ok but sizing way off. Order your bra size, do not measure. Band is lower than other similar products.

I followed the size chart and it FTTS. I really appreciate the care and thoughtfulness put into this post-op bra. PROS: 1) it’s available in a wide range of cup size and band combinations so you can get your exact size. Other brands that I tried, though also good quality and much cheaper, sold only in S, M, etc so the cups are too big for my smaller size. If I went down a size then the band would be too tight. 2) the longline elastic bottom band does not sit on your incisions which is a blessing, the stitches (seams) face outward and does not rub against your skin. 3) the front and shoulder straps hook & eye closures allow you to further adjust the bra for the best fit through the stages of healing after surgery. It hugs me in all the right places and stays in place. CONS: 1) expensive and you cannot try it on then return if it doesn’t work. It’s NOT returnable if you break the seal/open the package. So make sure you follow the instructions to measure yourself correctly then follow the size chart. 2) the edge of the elastic bottom band is kind of sharp, not the softest. It dug into my skin uncomfortably whenever I bent. The inner edges around the neck line and the armpits are not the softest either but kind of rough. At first they rubbed against my skin uncomfortably. It took me a while to get used to it. Either that or they softened up a bit after wear & washes. Overall, though not a “pure bliss” kind of bras, this is still the best fit and supporting bras for post-op. Note that this bra is not lined and does not have built-in pockets. The cups material is the same as the rest of the bra so they are thin.

This was the best bra - and I tried SO MANY - after my reduction surgery. The compression really helped with the swelling. It has lots of adjustability. The seams are built to avoid incision sites unlike normal sports bras. Definitely worth the money for the comfort post surgery.

Bra doesn’t say any cup size ordered

Item rides up.

Sehr gute Passform und auch der Verschluss ist angenehm. Farbe dezent. Angenehm.
