After breast surgery, finding the right bra can make a meaningful difference to your comfort, support and confidence.

Whether you’re recovering from a mastectomy, lumpectomy or breast reconstruction, or managing lymphoedema, your needs may change throughout the healing process. Our team provides compassionate, personalised fittings to help you explore post-surgery options suited to your body, lifestyle and stage of recovery.

The Colleen’s post-surgery range includes soft, front-opening, seamless and compression styles designed to support different needs following surgery. Your surgeon or treating team should always guide when and what type of bra is appropriate for you.

Chemotherapy can sometimes leave fingernails and toenails feeling dry, fragile, uncomfortable or more vulnerable to damage.

Polybalm® Nail Balm is designed to moisturise and support the nail beds during chemotherapy. Its blend of natural waxes and oils helps protect against drying, splitting and cracking while nourishing the skin around the nails.

Each pack contains two tubes—one for the hands and one for the feet—to help reduce the risk of cross-contamination. Simply massage a small amount around the fingernails and toenails two to three times daily, following the product directions.

Polybalm is available in store at Colleen’s and online:

Finding the right breast form is about more than shape or size, it’s about feeling comfortable, supported and confident in your body again 💗

Boost breast forms are available at Colleen’s and may be suitable for swimming, water-based activities or everyday moments where comfort, movement and confidence matter.

Whether you’re looking for something lightweight, practical or suitable for an active lifestyle, a personalised fitting can help you understand your options and find what feels right for you.

Medicare rebates are available for eligible clients, and some private health funds may reimburse for swimming breast forms.

• Have Stage 2–3 HER2-negative, hormone receptor-positive breast cancer.
• Are taking, or have taken, treatment after breast cancer surgery, such as hormone-blocking or endocrine therapy.

By sharing your lived experience, you can help improve support for the breast cancer community.

If you’d like to take part:
1. You'll first answer a few questions to check your eligibility.
2. If eligible, you'll be invited to complete a 25-minute online survey.
3. You can then choose whether to express interest in a second phase, involving around 45 minutes of activities over 7 days.
4. You'll receive a thank you payment for completing the survey, and another if you take part in the second phase.
