Need help finding correct size? People are getting in touch lately as they are needing new bras and unsure what size they are. It is tricky at present due to all the current restrictions in place and lingerie shops being closed. Linnoco have done a quick video showing you how to measure yourself at home and how to use these measurements to work out your bra size. It is advisable to wear a soft bra while doing the measurements, not a t-shirt bra as this may give you a larger measurement due to the padding in the cups. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FErLENsQy0 If [...]

Breast prosthesis come in different sizes, shape, weight and colour. They are used after breast surgery to replace tissue loss and provide shape post op. Initial Post-Surgery prostheses are soft to allow for wound healing while giving shape. After approximately 6-8 weeks a full prosthesis can be fitted. This allows for swelling to reduce in the chest area and for scars to heal. For some ladies they may wish to continue to use a soft or initial prosthesis instead of a full or permanent prosthesis while for others they may choose not to use one at all. Initial Breast Prostheses [...]
Breast prosthesis is an artificial breast form that takes the place of breast tissue that was removed during surgery. For some ladies breast reconstruction following surgery may not be something that they wish to do and so a breast prosthesis is used to provide a balanced silhouette. Breast prosthesis can be used by ladies whose breasts are different sizes naturally or post breast reconstruction if the size and shape of the breasts is different. They can be a temporary measure for some prior to breast reconstruction and alternatively some ladies will chose not to wear breast prosthesis post surgery. Types [...]
