best contact form

Hi Maria,

Yes, you are correct.  You can generally wear your old bras with a contact form.  However, all my old bras were underwire and I have gotten away from those.  I have found that bras that are made of material that stretches a little seem to work best for the contact form.

I wear the Amoena Tresia 653 and love it!  I mean, I REALLY love it!  It just moves with me and feels like a part of me.  It works better also when I bend down since it is stuck onto me it does not come away from my chest.  Not that tons of people are trying to look but with the contact form I feel more secure.  I am a size 34A in mast. bras and wear a size 3 contact form.  I originally used a size 2 but the 3 seems to match my existing size better.

Not sure what it costs but I think around $300.  Online you may be able to get it closer to $265.  Also, my fitter recommended buying the stick on nipples also and they really make the form look like a real boob.

The contact forms stay in the same place incredibly well.  I am not sure about return policy on those since it may be difficult to return something that attaches to your body.  Maybe someone else will know and chime in.

Hi Maria,

The form that's being discontinued is the Amoena Tria Plus, which uses triangular skin supports to attach the form. The Amoena Tresia 653 form that Carol (caaclark) mentioned is still available. The adhesive substance is on the back of the Tresia 653, so no sticky strips are necessary. Here's a link that shows a picture of it: http://www.womanspersonalhealth.com/products/1262/Amoena-Breast-Form-Model-653.htm

Amoena is in the process of re-naming their forms, so the 653 may be sold in some places under a new name and number, but the form is still available.

Maria,

I wear the Amoena Tria Contact Light

It is a self-adhesive form so there is no tape to buy. There is a pebbly, sticky back to it. I really love it since I can wear regular bras with it. The stickiness does decrease over time but it still works fine inside of a regular bra. It is most comfortable in a full coverage type of bra so I did buy new bras to wear with it but at least I had more of a selection.

It is not so comfortable to work out in so for that I usually wear a regular form in a Janac sports bra. The contact form does come with a backing so you can put it in a mast bra with a pocket but I had an old regular form that I use since I have it already. If I had to pick just one form, I would buy the contact form.

Sizing should be the same as other Amoena forms so you can try on regular Amoena forms, find your size, and then order the contact form on-line. I bought my contact form at Nordstrom. I doubt you will be able to return it. I wear a 32DD bra and a size 7 form.

Carol, I think you told me before but what kind of stick-on nipples do you use? It's a great idea and I'd like to try it out.
