[0002] At present, in order to prevent the formation of subcutaneous cavities, reduce subcutaneous fluid accumulation, gas accumulation and skin flap necrosis after traditional breast disease surgery, it is necessary to properly lay gauze on the surgical site and then effectively apply pressure to stop bleeding, prevent the patient's incision from cracking after surgery, and reduce postoperative pain; especially after breast augmentation surgery, the wound needs to be bandaged and a certain amount of pressure needs to be applied to facilitate better recovery.

[0003] Existing bras designed specifically for breast reconstruction surgery can easily cause friction to the wound and squeeze the nipple, potentially causing ischemic necrosis. Furthermore, the back area of ​​the bra also has friction and airtightness issues.

[0004] In view of the above situation, it is necessary to carry out technical innovation based on the existing special bras for breast reconstruction surgery. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a special bra with an adjustable elastic structure for use after breast reconstruction surgery, so as to solve the problems of existing special bras causing friction on the wound, squeezing the nipples and potentially causing ischemic necrosis, as well as the problems of friction and airtightness in the back area of ​​the bra.

[0006] The present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A special bra with an adjustable elastic structure for use after breast reconstruction surgery comprises a front portion and a back portion. The back portion comprises a back main body 1, a lubricating pad 11 being installed in the middle of the back main body 1, and ventilation holes 2 being provided on the back main body 1 in the area surrounding the lubricating pad 11. The front portion comprises a pair of front main bodies, a detachable breast pad being adhered to the inner side of each front main body, the central area of ​​the breast pad comprising a detachable circular area, and one to two layers of detachable annular areas extending outward from the circular area.

[0008] Preferably, a circle of breast pad Velcro 24 is provided around the central area of ​​the breast pad for bonding to the inner side of the front main body.

[0009] Preferably, the thickness of the breast pad is 1 cm.

[0010] Preferably, the radius of the circular area is 5 cm, and the width of each annular area is 5 cm.

[0011] Preferably, the back main body 1 has a plurality of long tubes on both sides, and the ends of the elastic band have hooks, and the hooks can be inserted into the long tubes to achieve the connection between the elastic band and the back main body 1.

[0012] Furthermore, a long strip of protective pad 10 is provided on the inner side of the elastic band near the back main body 1 to reduce the friction between the elastic band and the back.

[0013] Preferably, the back main body 1 is rectangular in shape, the lubricating pad 11 is sutured to the rear wall of the back main body 1, the structure of the lubricating pad is circular, and the center line of the lubricating pad coincides with the center line of the back main body.

[0014] Preferably, the elastic band includes a first elastic band 5 located on one side of the back main body 1, and a second elastic band 8 located on the other side of the back main body 1, and the first elastic band and the second elastic band are connected by Velcro of equal size.

[0015] Furthermore, the first elastic band and the second elastic band are symmetrical about the center line of the back main body, and the clamps are evenly distributed along the side of the back main body 1.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0017] 1) The front main body of the bra has been optimized. A removable breast pad is attached to the inside of the front main body. The central area of ​​the breast pad has a removable circular area, and outward from the circular area there are one or two layers of removable ring areas. Depending on the size of the nipple, the circular area or the ring area can be removed to reduce the pressure and friction on the nipple (wound area);

[0018] 2) Ventilation holes are evenly distributed along the interior of the back body, so that when the patient uses the back body, ventilation can be achieved through the vents, preventing the patient from sweating and reducing bacterial growth, which is more conducive to the patient's recovery and prevents infection of the patient's wound;

[0019] 3) The lubricating pad is sutured to the rear wall of the back body. This circular lubricating pad effectively reduces friction between the inner wall of the back body and the patient's skin, and prevents the shaking of the back body from damaging the gauze bandage. Thus, the lubricating pad effectively protects the patient's wound.

[0020] 4) The first and second elastic bands on both sides of the back main body are connected by Velcro. When the patient uses the back main body, the first and second elastic bands can be adjusted to the tightness according to the patient's size through the Velcro, thereby making the patient more comfortable when using the back main body. The clamping tube and the hook are movably connected. When the patient uses the back main body for a period of time, the clamping tube and the hook can be used to separate the back main body from the elastic bands, thereby allowing the back main body to be replaced, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the back main body;

[0021] 5) Several cartridges are evenly distributed along the side of the back main body, so that multiple first elastic bands and second elastic bands are installed on the back main body, which can make the back main body more stable on the patient's body and prevent it from falling, thereby effectively protecting the patient's wound.
