External Breast Prosthesis

Whole breast form prostheses to be used outside of the breast, inside a pocketed bra or adhered directly to the surface of the skin. Made predominantly from silicone, they may be formed from an outer polyurethane layer filled with silicone gel, or a solid or foam silicone. Used to mimic a whole/full breast when the whole breast has been surgically removed, in a variety of shapes, sizes, colours and weights to suit the specific requirements of the individual.

Partial breast prostheses are made from a polyurethane layer filled with silicone gel and may be worn inside a bra. Used to provide symmetry to a breast post-surgery when only a portion of tissue has been removed. Required in a variety of asymmetric and symmetrical shapes, sizes and weights to suit the specific requirements of the individual. The prosthesis is pre-shaped and available in a range of weights, fullness, shape and size, to mimic a natural breast. Gel filled prosthesis may be made from standard silicone gel, incorporate temperature balancing mechanisms or be adjustable to improve fit and accommodate changing breast shape and size.

Soft form prostheses are required in an alternative material to silicone, intended for immediate post-mastectomy use. Required in a variety of asymmetric and symmetrical shapes and sizes to suit the specific requirements of the individual. Unweighted breast prosthesis may be used on a short term or temporary basis, such as immediately after surgery or during radiotherapy treatment.

Ready sized whole breast prosthesis suitable for leisure activity to be used outside of the breast. Breast prosthesis suitable for use during leisure activities may be made from a variety of materials, and may be suitable for use when swimming in chlorinated or salt water.
