    The treatment of breast cancer is one of the most significant worldwide medical challenges. The patient undergoes ablation after a breast cancer diagnosing. There is a need to reconstruct the breast after ablation as soon as possible. The field of health science is still open for new approaches from different branches. There are several challenging ways, promising better recovery of patients. On the one side, there is predicted of surgery by modern numerical approaches, e.g. finite element method. On the other hand, there are improvements on daily stuffs during the recovery period, e.g. bra. Find more suitable surgical bra helping patients in the postoperative period. The interaction between the breast and the bra can be analysed using a numerical approach. A key component of the finite element model (FEM) is a material model that characterises the mechanical behaviour of the breast implant. FEM is a common approach to overcome engineering challenges in many fields. This method is also increasingly used in the health sector. In the case of post reconstruction bras, FEM can show high contact pressure between the bra and the breast of a patient. This pressure can have an adverse effect on the recovery time after reconstruction surgery after breast ablation. The aim of this contribution is to evaluate the accuracy of breast implant material model from article proposed by Kovar et al. (2016).
