External breast prostheses are wearable devices designed to restore the appearance of a breast after mastectomy or breast removal surgery. They are crafted from materials like silicone, foam, or fabric to mimic the shape, size, and texture of a natural breast, providing both aesthetic and psychological support to users.
These devices are typically sold as finished products, requiring no medical prescription or professional fitting in most cases. They are classified as non-invasive, non-medicated, and intended for cosmetic enhancement rather than medical treatment, though they may be recommended by healthcare providers as part of post-mastectomy care.
