To mark the launch of our latest breast shaper, we want to let women dealing with the issue know that they’re not alone. We’re determined to raise awareness of breast asymmetry, and to help more women discover solutions. Silicone breast shapers like Balance Adapt Air are a gentle and non-invasive solution for restoring symmetry and rebuilding confidence after partial removal of the breast after breast cancer or other diseases and in the case of breast malformation or degeneration.
Uneven breasts… it’s not the easiest thing to talk about. But, for many women after breast cancer therapy, they’re a fact of life. Breast asymmetry often begins not long after the treatment and recovery process. As well as being emotionally troubling, uneven breasts can also lead to physical difficulties when the asymmetry is very pronounced. In these cases, the difference in weight could possibly lead to poor posture, which in turn could cause tension in the neck, shoulders and back.

Why should I wear a shaper?
Breast asymmetry is a common challenge for women after breast conserving surgery or reconstruction following a breast cancer diagnosis.
For many women, the asymmetry typically begins not long after the treatment and recovery process and can have a serious impact on their quality of life.
As well as psychological issues, women can also suffer from tension and pain in the back, shoulder or neck caused by
the weight imbalance. And many experience irritation and discomfort because their bra no longer fits the way it used to.
A silicone breast shaper can be a great non-invasive solution for restoring symmetry and rebuilding confidence.
For optimal results it is important to wear a bra that fits right, here you can read more on how a bra should fit and what features makes the Amoena bras special.

What is a shaper?

There are many different sizes and shapes so we recommend you always seek out a professional fitter.

Additionally our patented Comfort+ technology absorbs, stores and releases body heat to help regulate and balance fluctuations in body temperature for ultimate comfort all day.

How do I wear a shaper?
Wearing a shaper is easy and comfortable. You can wear it just inside a properly fitted bra directly against the skin. We recommend you wear an Amoena bra together with a shaper. The special design (higher cut at the front and sides) ensures that the shaper is kept in place.

Balance Adapt Air is our most innovative shaper yet. It’s designed with an air chamber that makes it easy to adjust the shaper so it meets your needs.

Why shapers are the solution
Today, 70 – 80 % of all breast cancer cases are treated with a breast-conserving therapy. The tumor is removed in such a way as to preserve as much natural breast tissue as possible. Others might decide they need additional surgery if the imbalance is more pronounced. But there is a simpler solution: breast shapers.
The extent and type of asymmetry differs from patient to patient. We offer you a comprehensive range of shapers to meet specific needs:
We strongly recommend visiting a close retailer and making an appointment with a fitter who help you find the right size and shape to get back your symmetry.
