How Long After Breast-feeding Can I Get Breast Implants?

January 28, 2009
Asked By:rupegui24 in miami,fl

I am a 24 mother of two. I stopped breastfeeding my one-year-old child when he was 3 months old (over 9 months ago). My breasts have reached their post-partum normalcy, but I am still able to express very small amounts of milk if I squeeze my breast. How much longer should I wait before I should consider myself a good candidate for breast implants?
