Wearing the right bra for each situation is very important after breast surgery to hold the shape of your new breasts and prevent sagging. The shape and position of the breast are supported by ligament tissue called Cooper’s ligaments. As we age, gravity stretches these ligaments and the breasts begin to sag. During exercise, the breasts bounce up and down under gravity and can sag sooner; after breast augmentation, these ligaments stretch further and the breasts move more, making sagging even more likely. That is why, after breast surgery, you should wear a bra suited to your own situation to help support these ligaments — so you can maintain the beautiful shape of your breasts, exercise comfortably, and prevent sagging.

Bra Education by U&U
U&U's bra education
U&U Plastic Surgery recommends bras that hold the implant in position and prevent sagging, and teaches you how to wear them through a personal fitting. Depending on your condition, your surgeon personally assesses your breasts and selects the right bra for you — bras that bring the breasts together, support the sides, support from below, widen the cleavage, or apply no pressure at all — from brands such as Venus, Calvin Klein, Uniqlo, Aimerfeel, Shock Absorber, and Victoria’s Secret.

The Importance of Bras
The importance of a bra
Wearing a bra during exercise is important. In a study by Professor Joanna Scurr, a biomechanist at the University of Portsmouth in the UK, who attached sensors to women's breasts and had them run on a treadmill, breasts swayed evenly up-and-down and side-to-side while walking — but once running began, vertical movement increased more than twofold compared with lateral and front-to-back movement, putting stress on the breast ligaments.
“A regular bra reduces breast bounce by about 38%, but a sports bra can absorb up to 74% of the impact.”
In particular, the female breast is supported not by muscle but by the thin fibrous tissue of Cooper's ligaments connecting the chest wall fascia to the skin, wrapping the entire breast; it is said that repeated impact from exercise and similar activities can tear Cooper's ligaments, which cannot heal on their own.
