Which Prosthesis After Breast Surgery?

Pink Essentials does not sell any prosthesis as these should be available free from your local NHS hospital.  Any providers who sell these items may only be thinking of their profit margin.

It is not your fault that you have had to have had surgery, so why should you have to pay for items such as prothesis.


Here in Shropshire:

There is a local charity that refunds the cost of bras bought within the first 12 months of surgery dependent on the charities funds available.

Prosthesis are offered free of charge at both Shrewsbury and Telford Hospitals.

In order to get the correctly fitted prothesis, you need to purchase a correctly fitted bra, fitted correctly to the remaining breast and then the prosthesis is fitted to match, giving an even shape within the bra chosen.

If a post-op bra is uncomfortable, then please don't wear it as there is usually atleast two bras that will be comfortable across the various ranges.

I love doing what I do, my reward is seeing ladies completely happy with their purchases. 
Why should you be taken advantage of. 

Here at Pink Essentials we have a set mark up and any amount over that is given back in discount.  The profits from the post-op ranges is put back into the provision of extra syles and sizes.

A bra can have up to 75+ different sizes per style and per colour.

Why not have a free one to one private fitting at Pink Essentials and try on various styles in your size.  After choosing a good quality bra with the straps adjusted to the correct fitting there is no need to suffer in silence.
