Are you, or your patient, battling with Post-Knee op swelling?

Unmanaged post-operative swelling increases tissue pressure, intensifies pain, limits knee flexion, and directly inhibits quadriceps activation. It can also result in secondary lymphoedema!

MOBIDERM, a patented lymph drainage compression bandaging system by THUASNE, gently massages the swelling (oedema) which improves the blood circulation to, and lymph drainage from, the surgical sight. It is therefore highly effective in...

1. Speeding up Post-knee op recovery
2. Preventing Secondary Lymphoedema
3. Reducing reliance on post-op painkiller
4. Accelerating functional range of motion (ROM).

MOBIDERM is distributed exclusively through BL MEDICAL.
MOBIDERM Compression bandaging and Garments are supplied through Certified Lymphoedema Therapists Lymphoedema Association of South Africa and Medical Orthotists SAOPA in South Africa and surrounding countries.

Furthermore, the massaging effect, created by the wearing these massage forms, help to soften fibrosis caused by radiation or lymphoedema.

CHOOSE your next breast form from the ABC Breast Care MASSAGE range. Wearing one of these will reduce the risk of swelling which can lead to lymphoedema.

Speak to you fitter about trying one of the amazing ABC MASSAGE breast forms.

Not all breast forms are the same — and choosing the right type depends on each individual’s surgery, needs, and comfort.

A full breast form is typically used after a full mastectomy to restore shape, balance, and symmetry. These forms replace the entire breast volume and can help clothing fit more comfortably and confidently.

A partial breast form (or shaper) is often used after a lumpectomy, reconstruction, or partial breast surgery where some natural breast tissue remains. It helps fill uneven areas and improve symmetry in bras or clothing.

Every patient’s journey is unique, which is why fittings are tailored to find the most comfortable and natural option for each individual.

It is important to understand what your breast structure looks and feels like. In doing so, you will be able to pick up and act on any changes you may notice.

Early detection is essential to the successful treatment of breast cancer!!

Spoiler alert: Not all lumps feel the same.
A cancerous lump is usually hard and feels different from the tissue around it. But what really matters is noticing any new lump, even soft ones.
That’s why feeling regularly helps you catch changes early—when they’re easier to treat.
