Masthead Pink Breast Surgery Products for the Modern Woman

Masthead Pink was founded in early 2011 by Elizabeth Chabner Thompson, MD, MPH, a New York physician and former breast surgery patient who observed both professionally and personally the acute need for a comprehensive line of products that would improve the patient experience before, during and after surgery and other treatment for cancer, breast reconstruction, traumatic brain injury, cesarean childbirth and other conditions. Our mission focuses upon developing products and services, which improve the patient experience before, during and after hospitalization in a way that preserves dignity and enhances recovery while maintaining the highest ethical standards and transparency.

Recovery looks different for everyone. 🩷

The Elizabeth Pink Surgical Bra® was designed for those earliest days after surgery, when thoughtful support can make a meaningful difference.

For years, it has been worn by patients and used in hospitals as part of post-surgical recovery. Every detail was created with medical insight, patient comfort and real recovery needs in mind.

It’s one of the styles that helped shape Masthead from the beginning, and today, it’s also being used to support people recovering from heart surgery.

If you’re not sure what size or style might work best for you, we’re always happy to help.

You’ve got this. You’ve got us.

It’s all about relationships! 🩷

Last week, I had the honor of spending the day with leaders in breast cancer care at Legacy Cancer Institute’s 21st Annual Pacific Northwest Excellence in Breast and Gynecologic Cancer Care Conference.

Ricki Fairley, who I first met more than a decade ago, inspired us with the work of TOUCH, The Black Breast Cancer Alliance, and its When We Tri(al) movement, highlighting the importance of collective participation and expanding access to clinical trials.

We also reviewed some of the most important research shaping clinical practice, explored the next generation of cancer care with Nikhil Thaker, MD, MBA, and his AI heatmaps, and heard Lori Eckel, Carley Jones and Gina Westhoff, MD, lead an important conversation around the emotional cost of oncology care.

The mutual appreciation for colleagues, patients and the work being done across cancer care was palpable throughout the standing-room-only crowd on Hayden Island.

Masthead is fortunate to play a role in breast surgery recovery and in the collaborative work happening at Legacy. Thank you to everyone involved for your continued commitment to providing the very best care for patients.

— Dr. Elizabeth Chabner

Breast Cancer Awareness Month can mean something different to everyone.

For the patients, survivors, families, caregivers and loved ones in our community, we know October can hold a lot of different emotions. There is no one right way to feel about this month.

We’re grateful for organizations like Breastcancer.org that continue to make space for all of it, while providing trusted information, resources and support to those affected by breast cancer. 💗

We were so happy to be part of NYU Langone Health’s 11th Annual Breast Health Symposium – Personalized Breast Cancer Care. 💗

The day brought together healthcare professionals to discuss important developments across breast care, including screening, high-risk breast lesions, genetic testing, radiation therapy and metastatic breast cancer treatment.

It was a great opportunity to learn, connect and be part of conversations around more personalized care for patients at every stage.

And what a meaningful way to begin Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Thank you to NYU Langone Health for such a thoughtful day, and to everyone who stopped by the Masthead table to say hello.

Sometimes after breast surgery, the goal is support without compression directly over the breast.

That can be especially important after reconstruction, when healing tissue, skin flaps or the ni**le may need to be protected from unnecessary pressure over the surgical site.

The Celeste Pectonic® was designed with that in mind. Its 3D-knit construction provides targeted compression through the underarm, underneath the breast and across the back, while keeping pressure over the breast mound, skin flap and ni**les to a minimum.

So instead of compressing the entire chest, the Celeste provides support around the breast while reducing pressure directly over areas that may be healing.

It’s one of the reasons different surgeries can call for very different kinds of post-surgical support. 💗

Post-surgical support should be part of the plan, not an afterthought.

That’s why we appreciated this post from Ann L Chuang MD MPH FACS, who sends most of her lumpectomy patients home in a post-surgical bra.

She looks for soft, wire-free support, a front opening, and adjustability to help make those early days after surgery a little easier.

We’re grateful to see the Elizabeth Pink Surgical Bra® being used as part of that care. 💗

A surgical bra was already part of post-sternotomy care at Intermountain Health, but women were still developing pressure injuries and sternal dehiscence.

In the year before the project, 7 of 110 women developed post-sternotomy wounds. Those cases accounted for 274 additional hospital days and more than $751,000 in financial burden.

Nurses selected the Elizabeth Pink Surgical Bra® and changed the care around it too. Patients were measured before surgery, placed in the bra immediately after the sternal incision was closed, and instructed to wear it for breast support 20 to 24 hours a day for at least 6 weeks.

Over the next 12 months, 82 women were followed. No chest pressure injuries or sternal dehiscence wounds were observed, and the wound incidence rate decreased from 6.4% to 0%.

Following the project, the Elizabeth Pink Surgical Bra® was implemented throughout the hospital system for patients undergoing sternotomy or breast surgical procedures.

There are the things you’re told to have ready before surgery… and then there’s the thing you end up reaching for every single day.

Safety pins shouldn’t have to be the solution for managing JP drains.

One of our customers recently told us her nurse was excited to see the built-in drain management on her Elizabeth Pink Surgical Bra® because she didn’t have to explain how to pin the drains to her clothing.

The loops and rings gave her drains a place to go and helped keep them from getting snagged. She also loved the adjustable sides and ended up ordering a second bra so she could wash one and still have another to wear.

After surgery, there’s already enough to manage. Drain support should be built into the bra, not something patients have to figure out afterward. 💗

A product can meet a clinical need and still preserve dignity.

In healthcare, function often gets most of the attention.
But patients experience every detail.

How something feels against sensitive skin.
How easy it is to put on and adjust.
How well it works with drains, swelling, or limited movement.
And how someone feels wearing it during a time when so much may already feel unfamiliar.

Those details may not always show up on a clinical checklist, but they matter.

As a physician-founded company, we’ve always believed patients shouldn’t have to choose between function and feeling comfortable, supported, and cared for.

The best medical products do both.
