Breast Augmentation And Swimsuit Selection

After a breast augmentation, no matter which surgery you elect to undergo, your swimsuit is not going to fit the same way. If you've had implants the top of your suit may provide you the support or coverage that it did in the past. If you've undergone a reduction, your swimsuit is going to be loose in areas that could be unflattering. Before you hit the beach, the pool, or even the backyard, prepare yourself for the season with the right swimsuit.

Throw the Old Suit Away:
In some instances, last summer's swimsuit can be the equivalent to a security blanket. It is comfortable. You know what it looked like before and you may have even felt relatively comfortable in it. However, don't let it sit in the drawer when you know that it is not going to look good on anymore. If you absolutely love the suit, try it on once and look in the mirror. If you don't absolutely love what you see, it needs to be tossed out. After a breast augmentation, you don't want to go backwards in the way you look and present yourself.

Shop in the Stores:
With the amount of clothing and swimsuits online, it can be tempting to order one online and hope for the best. Unfortunately, even after examining the fitting chart and taking your measurement, you can still end up with an unflattering swimsuit. At least for the first year (or two) after your breast augmentation, go into a store to shop for your swimwear.

Here you can try on different brands and styles to get an idea of the most flattering suit for your new body. When you walk in, be sure to pick up a couple of different options before heading to the fitting room. Because your body has changed, there is a chance that a swimsuit you never thought you could wear will now look amazing. Commit to spending some serious time trying on different items to get a better of feel of how you are going to look out in the water now that you have undergone breast augmentation.

Reconsider Cover-up:
Last year, did you keep your cover-up on for a majority of the time out by the water? Did you slip into the pool and take it off at the very last minute? While a cover-up is a great addition to any woman's wardrobe, think about how long you keep it on and where you are wearing it. Don't wear it in the water. Enjoy the changes that you have made and be proud of the results of the breast augmentation.

For most women, shopping for a swimsuit is not an ideal way to spend an afternoon. Instead of stressing, look at this as a new opportunity to enjoy the changes that you have made. This is your chance to show off you new look and some of that self-confidence that you gained along the way.
