Replying to Knee Braces

Not sure if this is in the right spot but it didnt really seem appropriate for the gear talk forum. anyways, a month or two ago i dislocated my kneecap and stretched some ligaments in my knee. i have been rehabbing by strengthening my hammies, quads and calves (on a side note does anyone have any good exercises/routines for this?) i wanna get back on the hill real soon. what are the best knee braces to get that are not fitted and prescribed by a doctor? i want something i can get online or in a store that will be sturdy, flexible, not too high profile but rugged at the same time. i ski in CO and am very aggressive in and out of the park. any insight you guys have for me would be great. im 6 ft 1 and 175 pounds if that means anything. thanks guys.
