Can anyone wear prosthetic swimwear?

Mastectomy swimwear, initially designed for post-surgery needs, is more versatile than you might think. While it provides higher necklines and armholes for scar concealment and features built-in bra pockets for prostheses, it's not limited to breast cancer survivors. In fact, it's inclusive for trans women too.


Our bikinis from BeBrave Beachwear take versatility up a notch. You can wear
them comfortably with or without a breast prosthesis, making them suitable for
everyone, including those with two breasts. This flexibility extends to women
with larger breasts who often struggle to find well-covering swimwear. The
higher neckline and armholes not only provide great support but also enhance
the fit and showcase cleavage tastefully.

Beyond looks, the firm support over a larger surface ensures the bikini stays in place, making it an excellent choice for active swimming or water sports enthusiasts.

Explore the many benefits of mastectomy swimwear – you might find it's the ideal choice for you too!
