3 Big Reasons Your Bra Needs to Fit Properly

Finding the perfect bra fit is essential not only for comfort but also for the health of your breasts, especially if you have undergone or are considering procedures such as breast augmentation, a breast lift, and more. These surgeries can alter the size and shape of your breasts, making it even more crucial to wear a bra that supports and complements your new silhouette.

Board-certified plastic surgeon Mary Herte, MD, who specializes in breast enhancement surgeries, emphasizes the importance of a well-fitted bra. Below, Dr. Herte highlights a few big reasons to wear a properly supportive bra.

1. LOOKS

You will have a more uplifted (youthful) look with better cleavage if you control the girls with a well-fitting bra. Full cleavage does not happen without bra control.

2. COMFORT

If you are fussing with your bra all day with pulling the band down and adjusting the straps, your bra does not fit. You should be able to put it on, adjust yourself, and go all day without touching it.

3. PROTECTION

If your breasts are not supported by a good bra, gravity will win. Your breast tissue will start pulling downhill (think sag) and your breasts will fall to the sides (goodbye cleavage).
