Amoena technologies
The research and development team at Amoena bras has been involved in continuous improvement of mastectomy products and perfecting technology to introduce newer and better versions. Amoena continues to lead in conceptualizing and producing innovative products and examples include the lighter weight breast forms, two-layer forms, Contact self-adhesive breast forms, ComfortPlus technology, etc.
The ComfortPlus technology introduced in Amoena products regulates the temperature between the breast form and the chest wall by absorbing, storing and releasing excess body heat. This helps provide maximum comfort to women suffering from hot flashes due to menopause or hormonal treatment. You will find the ComfortPlus technology in Amoena mastectomy product styles such as Natura, Energy, Contact and Balance.
The InTouch soft silicone technology employed in Amoena mastectomy silicone breast forms makes it the softest and most durable silicone available giving a most natural feel. The InTouch silicone drapes on to the body contours naturally making you forget you are wearing prosthesis.
ComfortPlus with Outlast® technology regulates the body temperature by absorbing and storing heat when it is in excess and releasing it when you need it. The Outlast® Phase Change Materials (PCM) provides extra-sensory comfort, reduced perspiration and less overheating by monitoring and controlling temperature swings. The Outlast®technology in Amoena products is proactive and pre-empts bodily temperature changes so even before the body can begin to sweat, the temperature balance sets in.
Memory foam and spacer foam are innovative additions to the line-up of Amoena mastectomy bra cups. Amoena bras with memory foam cups provide a snug fit, shaping up to the breast or breast form creating a smooth silhouette. The mastectomy spacer foam bra is exceptionally lightweight and breathable because of the integrated air pockets which provide relief on a hot day keeping you free of sweaty skin.
Amoena Contact mastectomy breast forms attach to the chest wall with an adhesive technology that allows even distribution of weight to the chest wall thereby cutting down pressure on the neck and shoulder. Amoena breast forms are also found to offer relief from lymphedema in certain cases.
Amoena breast forms are best suited for their own pocketed bras that are designed to provide all around comfort. Innovative and creative, these pocketed bras have been designed keeping in mind all aspects of the breast form. The cup of an Amoena pocketed bra accommodates the shape of the breast form best while also concealing surgery scars and radiation burn marks. The pocketed bra straps are wider, sometimes padded, and very comfortable so as to provide relief from tension around the shoulders and neck. The distance between the Amoena bra straps across the shoulders is designed to be shorter because this offers firmer support when compared to regular bras.
Amoena mastectomy pocketed bra shoulder straps are comfortable and adjustable. At the back, there are more than one option for the hook and eyes so individual requirement can be met. The padded hook-eye strap of Amoena bra is gentle on the skin. Seams on the sides and under the arms are wider to provide better support and also conceal scars.
The front, central part of the Amoena pocketed bra is broad for providing better support and covering up scars. The bra’s underband has ample width to hold up the breast form securely and firmly.
You can choose and buy from among the variety of Amoena mastectomy bras online. The Amoena Contact Multi offers a choice to you when to wear a breast form attached to the chest wall and when to wear it in a pocket. The Contact Multi is a silicone pad with adhesive on both sides. When you want to wear an attached breast form, you can secure the pad to a 2S or 3S breast form and attach it to the chest wall. This allows the user the freedom to choose.
The Amoena mastectomy Natura Xtra Light breast form is extremely lightweight weighing 40% less than a standard silicone breast prosthesis. It is designed to maintain the proper shoulder alignment and posture of the user. This breast form has a two-layer design and a snug fit to keep the prosthesis upright in a pocketed bra and close to the body. It employs the ComfortPlus technology with InTouch ultra-soft silicone.
The Amoena Essential balance breast shapers are designed to enhance your body, correct breast imbalance and provide an even silhouette. These breast shapers or inserts can be placed inside a bra or attached to the chest wall directly. They fill in the mastectomy bra cup perfectly and though discreet, they provide a natural boost. Amoena Essential balance breast shapers ideally fill in spaces left by breast surgery and give you a fuller look.

It is important to get a good fit for your Amoena breast form and Amoena bra to ensure comfort and extended wear time. Which size is for you will be decided by a professional fitter who you can visit 6-8 weeks after the breast surgery. By this time the surgery scars would have healed and the measurement would be accurate. A trained and certified mastectomy fitter will guide you in terms of choosing the right mastectomy breast form size depending on your needs.
The fitter will base your measurement on three important considerations. These are:
Breast form fit: This will depend on your choice for cup fullness– shallow, average or full.
Breast form shape: Whether symmetrical or asymmetrical.
Breast form size: This can be ascertained from measuring the bra size.
Which Amoena mastectomy breast form size you need will depend on your bra size. Use this conversion chart to get your breast form size. For example, if your bra size is 36B, you will require size 5 breast form.
To get the right-sized Amoena mastectomy bra, you need to have your band size and cup size. Here’s how you can find that:
Band size: Start measuring from the center of the chest, around the underneath part of the remaining breast and to the center of the spine. Now double the measurement to get your band size
Cup size: This time measure the cup size across the fullest part of the remaining breast. Start from the center of the chest, fully across the remaining breast and to the center of the spine. Now double the measurement to get your cup size.
Use this conversion chart to find out the Amoena bra size using your band size and cup size measurements.
