Balance After Breast Cancer – Partial Breast Forms by amoena

Recreating breast balance  

Everything can change with a breast cancer diagnosis.

Perhaps your breast-conserving surgery was a few years back and you've noticed some changes in your body. 

Maybe you're are awaiting surgery and wonder what will my body look like?

You are not alone in these moments of uncertainty – many women experience this.

A partial breast form, at amoena, we like to call them balance shapers, will help recreate balance in your breast silhouette. 

They are discreet and comfortable, some are even adjustable, like the Balance Adapt Air.

A little (or a lot of) asymmetry

Breast asymmetry can often occur after breast-conserving surgery.

It may only be a slight difference in size, shape or weight, but you notice it at different times.

Maybe you're often needing to adjust your bra, or you only want to wear a padded bra.

It's not uncommon, around 70% of breast cancer patients globally undergo some form of breast-conserving surgery, with 30% having a mastectomy.

Balance shapers from amoena are designed specifically for those with breast asymmetry, with a variety of options to suit your needs. They can recreate balance, adding extra fullness where needed to support your silhouette. Plus they're so comfortable, you can wear them against your skin.

Their fine edges blend seamlessly into your breast shape. So you can wear what you like and move confidently.

You are unique – just like our products

That’s why Balance shapers are available in different shapes and sizes to suit you:

• Delta: For even volume across the whole breast
• Oval: Perfect if you only need to smooth out part of the breast
• Varia: Flexible placement, exactly where you need it (like after a lumpectomy)
• Ellipse: Specially for the lower breast area with a little boost.

The Balance Adapt Air can even be adjusted for your shape with an air chamber.

Why would I go to a fitter?

A trained fitter takes the time to help you find a breast form, balance shaper or bra to suit you and your lifestyle.

They'll work with you to make sure you feel balanced, comfortable and confident.

Their knowledge and expertise takes the guess work out of it.

Did you know about the Medicare rebate?

You can claim up to $400 every two years for a new breast form or Balance shaper.

If you have had breast surgery (including a mastectomy, breast conserving, lumpectomy or prophylactic mastectomy) due to breast cancer, you can use this rebate to help cover the cost of the prosthesis. If both breasts have been affected, you can claim up to $800 every 2 years. For more information, go to the Services Australia website and search 'breast prothesis rebate'
