· Non-silicone prostheses – lightweight forms that enhance shape

Here for You, Before Surgery
We encourage patients to visit the Appearance Boutique before their scheduled breast surgery or cancer treatment. Many women are reassured to see the choices in breast prostheses available to them, and also to ensure that they have garments on hand that will be helpful during their surgical recovery. There is never a charge for consultation with our staff.
We can also help determine your insurance benefits and guidelines during this consultation. Most private insurers, as well as Medicare, provide coverage for breast prostheses and post-surgical undergarments. The staff at the Appearance Boutique can file your insurance and track you expenditures for physician-ordered products so that you don’t exceed your coverage.
