Partial breast forms and balance shapers
A partial breast form, also called a balance shaper or partial breast prosthesis, adds shape where you need it, after a lumpectomy, breast-conserving surgery or reconstruction, or for naturally uneven breasts.
Our range is Amoena's Balance collection, in a choice of shapes, sizes and thicknesses, and each shaper can be rotated to fill in where it's needed most.
Choose your shape
- Delta shapes, a rounded triangle, such as Balance Natura Medium Delta and Volume Delta, and the lightweight Balance Natura Light Volume Delta.
- Ellipse shapes, a rounded half circle with finely tapered edges, especially suited to the lower part of the cup, such as Balance Natura SE231 and Balance Essential SE232.
- Oval and varia shapes, such as Balance Natura Thin Oval and the Balance Natura SV 285 and Balance Contact SV 286.
- Balance Contact shapers, which adhere gently to your body for extra security and come with a soft carry case.
- Balance Adapt Air, with an air chamber and a pump so you can fine-tune the fit and volume, which suits uneven breasts and a shape that changes from time to time.
Thin, Medium and Volume thicknesses let you add just a little shape or fill the cup evenly, and the Comfort+ layer on most shapers helps keep a steady temperature against your skin.
You'll also find Boost Shape forms here, exclusive to Colleen's, with a shallower projection and a smaller footprint.
Medicare and partial forms
The External Breast Prostheses Reimbursement Program includes partial mastectomies and lumpectomies. If you've had breast surgery because of cancer and you're enrolled in Medicare, it can reimburse up to $400 for each form, with 1 claim every 2 years. Read more on our Medicare page.
Find your fit
The right shape and thickness depend on your surgery and your shape, and a fitting makes the choice simple.
Our fitters are trained in fitting women during and after breast cancer, in Garran, Canberra, and at Bra Fitting Wisdom in Birdwood in the Adelaide Hills. Book a fitting, or shop online with free postage on orders over $150, plus Afterpay and PayPal.

Do I need a partial form or a full breast form?
A partial form fills in part of the breast, while a full everyday breast form gives the whole breast shape after a mastectomy, and your fitter can help you decide.
Can a balance shaper be worn on either side?
Yes, the symmetrical shapes can be worn on either side.
