3. Setup and Sizing
Sizing Guide:
To ensure the best fit, refer to the ActiveFlow Size Guide below. Proper sizing is crucial for comfort and a natural appearance.
This chart provides the ActiveFlow Size Guide, illustrating how to select the correct form size (ranging from 1 to 14) based on your bra cup size (AA through DDD) and bra band size (28 to 52 inches). It is crucial for ensuring a proper and comfortable fit.
Initial Placement:
- Inspect the Form: Before first use, carefully inspect the form for any manufacturing defects or damage.
- Choose Garment: The Active Flow Swim/Activity Form is designed to be worn inside a mastectomy swimsuit pocket or a sports bra. Ensure your chosen garment has a secure pocket or sufficient support.
- Positioning: Gently place the form into the garment pocket. Adjust its position to achieve a natural and balanced silhouette. The flexible monoprene beads allow for minor adjustments to conform to your body's contours.
- Securing (Optional but Recommended): For added security, especially during vigorous activities or swimming, utilize the integrated satin garment loop. Pin this loop to the inside of your garment. Ensure the pin does not puncture the form itself.
4. Operating Instructions
Once properly placed and secured, the Active Flow Swim/Activity Form is ready for use during various activities.
Usage Guidelines:
- Swimming: The form's lightweight, water-resistant design makes it suitable for swimming. It will not absorb water, maintaining its weight and shape in aquatic environments.
- Active Lifestyles: Wear the form during exercise, sports, or other physical activities. Its breathable construction helps manage moisture and heat more effectively than traditional silicone forms.
- Comfort and Adjustment: The monoprene beads adapt to body movements, offering comfort and a natural feel. Minor adjustments may be needed periodically to maintain the desired shape and position, similar to how a bean bag conforms.
5. Maintenance and Care
Proper care ensures the longevity and hygiene of your Active Flow Swim/Activity Form.
- Cleaning: After each use, especially after swimming or strenuous activity, rinse the form thoroughly with mild soap and cool water. Gently squeeze out any excess water.
- Drying: Allow the form to air dry completely. The fast-dry spacer fabric and monoprene beads facilitate quick drying. Do not use direct heat sources such as hair dryers, radiators, or direct sunlight, as this may damage the material.
- Storage: Store the completely dry form in its provided water-resistant satin drawstring bag. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid placing heavy objects on top of the form to prevent deformation.
6. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common concerns and provides solutions for optimal use of your Active Flow Swim/Activity Form.
Form Shifting or Floating:
- Issue: The form shifts position or floats out of the garment during activity.
- Solution: Ensure the form is securely placed within a snug-fitting mastectomy bra or swimsuit pocket. Utilize the satin garment loop to pin the form to your garment for extra stability. A tighter-fitting garment may also help.
Scratchiness or Discomfort:
- Issue: The form feels scratchy or causes discomfort against the skin.
- Solution: The form is designed to be worn within a garment pocket. If worn directly against the skin, it may cause irritation. Ensure it is always placed inside a fabric pocket or a bra with a soft lining.
Does Not Maintain Rigid Shape:
- Issue: The form does not hold a perfectly rigid shape, especially when lying down.
- Solution: This is an intended characteristic of the monoprene bead design, which allows for natural movement and flattening. It is designed to adapt to your body and position for a more natural appearance. If a consistently rigid shape is desired, this form may not be suitable for that specific need.
