Silicone Breast Forms—Natural Look



Silicone breast forms are generally considered to be the most realistic type of breast forms you can wear after a mastectomy or lumpectomy procedure. Silicone breast forms resemble not only the look feel of natural breasts, but also the movement of natural breasts. This means that no one who is looking at you will ever be able to tell that your breast or breasts are not your own.
Silicone breast forms aren't appropriate in every occasion. For instance, they can sometimes be too warm on very hot days, making them uncomfortable. They might also be too heavy for you to wear when working out or engaging in other strenuous physical activity.
Outside of these occasions, however, silicone breast forms are a great choice and one that will help you to feel good about your body when you look in the mirror. Added enhancements including nipples on your breast forms can help to complete the picture as well, providing an even more realistic appearance for important social occasions.

Where Can You Purchase Breast Forms?



After a mastectomy, you may decline plastic surgery. If so, you may then find yourself in search of an alternative—breast forms. It’s a good safe choice. 

Shopping Online
Your best option is to find a professional certified breast form fitter. You should be able to look in your phone book under the term “mastectomy” and find a store that has a fitter. If you are not finding a listing you may go on line to a site like yellowpages.com. You would then search for a business, put in the word breast prosthesis or mastectomy, enter the closest large city to you and start a search. You would then want to call and be sure they had certified fitters.

Your best bet after that, if you have not found a fitter you wish is to see, would be to do your shopping online. This is convenient and may be done in the privacy of your home. You should look for a store offering a wide variety of quality products. Read through the descriptions and do a bit of research on the pros and cons of each type. If you have trouble making a choice, make sure the company has customer service reps waiting to assist you and don’t hesitate to use them.
