The NEARLY ME® 375 Extra Lightweight Triangle with a special flowable silicone gel back has been designed specifically to fit women who have uneven chest walls after breast surgery.
With today’s modified surgeries more natural tissue is being left on a woman’s body making it difficult for a breast form to make full contact against the chest. Without good contact, a form may feel heavy and move around in a bra. The NEARLY ME® 375 Triangle solves these problems because it is made with two unique silicone formulations. The front is very soft, super-lightweight, “whipped” silicone that is 35% lighter than standard-weight silicone. The back has a layer of clear flowable silicone that moves or flows into any depressions and away from any fuller areas. Each form is encapsulated in a thin polyurethane membrane that is soft, supple yet durable. This extra lightweight silicone breast form is also recommended for women who have a problem with heavier silicone forms due to health issues such as arthritis or who may have less dense natural breast tissue remaining.
“Whipped” silicone gel forms are very popular because they are lighter, but the decision to wear a lighter form should be considered carefully. Consult your Certified Mastectomy Fitter to make sure your bra and breast form fit correctly if you feel that your breast form is too heavy.
This versatile triangle shape fits snuggly against a flatter chest wall, and the profile is shallower than a full form; it is considered semi-full. The top wing of the form also comes up higher on the chest, and the base of the triangle is wider.
Consumers should discuss all fitting and health insurance options regarding this form with a Certified Mastectomy Fitter (CMF). Click here for more details about CMFs.
