Swell Spots Breast Pad is specifically designed to address swelling and fibrosis in the breast area after a lumpectomy or reconstructive surgery. Its innovative seamless design allows SP-09 to be used on both sides of the chest without irritation. The unique design helps break up tough fibrotic tissue, while protecting the skin underneath, while breaking up the tough fibrotic tissue and are also able to evenly disperse irregular pressures to prevent compression hot-spots. Sizing is determined by cup size. This edema padding is constructed of proprietary and grey microfiber fabric. Proprietary fabric is comfortable, breathable, wickable, and provides thermal release. Grey microfiber fabric grips the skin and encourages gentle tissue stretch to help open the initial lymphatics. They are both easy to use, and easy to care for.

Features:

• Not made with natural rubber latex.
• Pre-shaped design eliminates the need for custom cutting or chip bags.
• Helps break down fibrosis and move lymphatic fluid for effective edema management.
• Specifically made for post-lumpectomy or breast reconstruction patients.
• Constructed with proprietary and microfiber fabrics that promote tissue flexibility and fluid reabsorption.
• Evenly distributes pressure to prevent compression hot spots.
• Seamless construction allows irritation-free use on both sides of the chest.

Benefits:

• Fills concavities and pads bony prominences.
• Supports reduction of limb volume.
• Helps soften hardened or fibrotic tissue.

• Encourages improved lymphatic flow and tissue health.

Properties:

• Coolcore fiber technology wicks away moisture for improved comfort.
• Ideal for challenging areas affected by edema, fibrosis, or irregular limb shapes.
• Channels designed according to Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) principles help direct lymph fluid to nearby lymph vessels.
