Intended users and patient target groups
Healthcare professionals and patients, including per-
sons who play a supporting role in care, are the inten-
ded users for this device, provided that the persons
supporting carer has received a briefing on this from
healthcare professionals. Healthcare professionals
should provide care to adults and children, applying
the available information on measurements/sizes and
required functions/indications, in line with the infor-
mation provided by the manufacturer, and acting un-
der their own responsibility.
Instructions for fitting and wear
The doctor or trained specialist must select the cor-
rect lipomed bra size based on the patient's measure-
ments. If the patient has undergone breast augmenta-
tion, it is recommended that this product be used in
conjunction with the lipomed belt in order to prevent
implant displacement. lipomed products are designed
for unique use by one patient (lasting 4 - 6 weeks) fol-
lowing an operation (single patient use). If the product
is used in multiple instances or if it is modified, then
its medical safety is no longer guaranteed. Changes to
the design, cut and standard model can result in im-
pairments in the therapeutic medical efficacy of the
product and may put the patient at risk. Changes of
any kind executed by third parties shall render the EU
declaration of conformity (CE marking) required by
law for medical devices which is issued by the manuf-
acturer null and void.
Contact with chemical substances (e.g. benzenes, me-
thanols, salicylic acids in high concentrations) may
impair the compressive function of the products. Oils
and ointments should not be applied to when com-
pression garments are used.
Length of time that compression clothing should
be worn and used for
The doctor will stipulate the period of time that the de-
vice needs to be worn for depending on the type and
extent of the surgery. Generally, the device must be
worn for around four weeks. To elicit optimal results,
the lipomed bra should be worn day and night.
Instructions for care
The lipomed compression bra can be washed in a nor-
mal washing machine, using a mild, non-bleaching
detergent. The wash temperature should not exceed
40°C. Do not use fabric conditioner. Wash your lipo-
med compression clothing separately or with clothing
that is similar in colour.
Note: Before every wash, close any hook-and-loop fa-
steners in order to preserve their functionality and to
prevent damage to other items of clothing. Air dry, but
