Post Surgery and Mastectomy Breast Care

After SurgeryRecover, Rebuild, Rejuvenate

Women who undergo breast cancer surgery face unique physical and emotional challenges during their recovery and treatment. Everyone at Dianes Lingerie is committed to helping women through this difficult time by offering delicate care and providing comfortable undergarments that will help restore a positive body image.

Dianes is certified by the B.C. Ministry of Health as a PharmaCare store. Physicians can refer after-surgery patients to our South Granville shop. Our team is specially trained in after-surgery care and we have received certification in prosthetic fittings. This specialized training allows us to meet the individual needs of post-surgical women.

Comfort and Choice
Women who have had a mastectomy, lumpectomy or breast reconstruction need two things above all in their prosthetics and after-surgery garments: comfort and choice. Dianes carries prosthetics (also known as breast forms), bras, including those fitted with pockets to hold the breast form in place, and leisure garments that provide maximum comfort, choice and convenience.

Post-Surgery Fitting at Dianes
Every woman is different and our bra-fitting experts are trained to select the perfect size, weight, style and shape of breast form that fits you best. The entire team at Dianes are here to support you and meet your needs during this vulnerable period of physical and emotional healing.

Once you have a prescription from your doctor, plan on spending approximately 45 minutes at Dianes. Wear one of your favourite outfits to see how a particular product appears on you. One of Diane's fitters will discuss your needs and show you the options best suited to you.
