Certainly wait until your milk dries up but also your weight is stable and your lifestyle ( i.e. exercise, habits, diet) is stable, generally at least 3-6 months. The more stable the size and shape of your breasts, the more accurately a particular technique can be applied, and the more predictable the long-term results.
Breast feeding and lactation may artificially increase breast volume and dimensions because of the hormonal response of the breast parenchyma during that period. Most surgeons would recommend waiting 6 months after breast feeding before performing breast contouring surgery.
Thee months is a reasonable amount of time to wait for a breast lift following the cessation of nursing. This allows the breasts to 'normalize' and involute/atrophy to their final size. Additoinally, it allow the body adequate time to normalize hormonally.
