1. Breast Form Size Chart

Most breast forms are sized numerically because each form can fit into several different bra sizes. This is only a guideline Everyone is different, but the suggested sizes are a great place to start. Breast form sizes are 1 through 14.  In this chart “1/2” stands for “size 1 or size 2”.

2. Inserting Breast Forms into a Mastectomy Bra

• Spread the bra out on a flat surface with the inside of the bra facing you.
• Hold the form by the edges with a flat hand so that the nipple is facing down.
• Spread the elastic on the cup and slide the form in so that the nipple faces outward.
• Adjust the form so it settles into the bottom of the cup.
• Hold the bra up with the form inside the pocket to make sure it looks correct.
• Be careful not to puncture the form or fold it. silicone forms are very durable, but the polyurethane skin can be punctured, and repeated abuse can alter the shape over time.

   

3. Removing Forms From a Mastectomy Bra

• Carefully slide your hand all the way into the pocket in front of the form.
• Stretch the pocket edge and pull the form out without folding the form.
• Try not to grab the side of the form with your thumb and forefinger to pull it out.  The forms are durable, but can be punctured.

4. Cleaning Breast Forms and Attachable Nipples

• You can wash your silicone breast forms and silicone attachable nipples with mild soap and water.
• Any soap that is safe for your skin is safe for the forms’ polyurethane skin.
• Do not use solvents like alcohol or kitchen cleaning products.
• The silicone forms are totally water proof.
• Then towel dry and store in the cradle that comes with the box.
• If the form has a permanent cloth cover, wash as above.  Do not bleach.  Cover will dry overnight.
• Foam forms can be washed in the same way: Hand wash with mild soap and water.  Pat dry with a towel.  Air dry.
