Every woman is unique – just like every breast cancer case. Many women develop temporary postoperative edema after breast surgery or chronic secondary lymphedema later in life. For these women , Amoena has created products and solutions that help prevent postoperative edema or noticeably improve life with chronic lymphedema.
Amoena's Lymph Care Concept
Every breast surgery has some impact on the body; for example, swelling can occur and there is a risk of developing postoperative edema. Amoena postoperative bras are designed to stabilize the operated breast(s) during the healing phase. They also minimize the risk of temporary postoperative edema.
In addition, factors that can contribute to chronic lymphedema include the number of lymph nodes removed, breast surgery with complications like wound infections, poorly fitting bras that dig into the skin, metastases, scars, and radiation therapy. These findings led to the development of the Amoena Lymph Care Concept. Below, we will briefly discuss three popular Amoena bras from different product categories.
Leyla
The Amoena Leyla post-surgery bra is our best-selling breast implant bra . A special compression zone supports the breast without putting pressure on the cup area. This seamless breast implant bra also features gentle pressure zones at the sides and back to stimulate lymphatic drainage and help prevent post-surgical edema. The integrated pockets for a Priform, breast form, or shaper, the wide and comfortable shoulder straps, and the front closure make the bra easy to use. ![]()
Linda
After your recovery phase or later, you may develop chronic secondary lymphedema. The Linda Bra relieves pressure with innovative bonding technology (flat seams that prevent cutting into the skin), wide shoulder straps for superior comfort, SensElast® technology on the sides that combines a gentle massage effect with freedom of movement, and a high, padded back closure for added comfort.

Leslie
Looking for comfortable lingerie and swimwear after your recovery phase or later? The Leslie bra is ideal for mild lymphedema in the thoracic and/or breast area. The textured material provides a gentle massage effect as you move. The cup is specially designed for larger sizes; it offers optimal support for women with a fuller figure or cup size. Extra-wide side and back panels ensure ultimate comfort and make the bra invisible under clothing. The wide, padded shoulder straps and high, padded back closure provide enhanced comfort and excellent coverage.
