Can Breast Fillers Like Aqualift/ Macrolane Affect Breastfed Babies?

Hi. I have undergone a breast filler Aqualift treatment in 2009. And have given birth and breastfed my baby for one year now.B4 breastfeeding I did check with the doctor who did my treatment,if i can safely breastfeed. She said ok But this week,my 1yr old baby is suspected of having UTI. Now waiting for the urine test results.I'm very worried that the breast filler I had 2 years ago have entered my milk ducts and baby has been consuming it. Scared if that's the case, will harm her kidney.

Can Breast Fillers Like Aqualift/ Macrolane Affect Breastfed Babies

Aqualift is an Ukranian produced polyacrylamide hydrogel which is sold by some Europeans, in Middle East (Lebanon, Syria, Kuwait, Egypt, Bahrain), Brazil and South-East Asia (Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, South Korea etc.). Neither Macrolane (Swedish product) nor Aqualift are approved for use in the US. With your treatment preceding the birth of your 1 year old by a year it is unlikely it had caused serious congenital malformations. Such anomalies are diagnosed MUCH earlier than a year... more

AquaLift should be applied in between the Pectoralis muscle and the Lobules in the existing fat zone. Located in this zone the body will encapsulate the injected aqualift and the deposit can stay up to 48 month in this location. It is not recommended to apply more than 200ml in one side of the breast. This amount gives you easy an augmentation of one cup size without surgical procedure. Aqualift is a complete sterile and in enclosed laboratories produces substance with up to 98% of sodium chloride – a liquid that gets widely applied intravenous. There is no reported case in the last 12 years that aqualift has caused any interference with breast feeding. Also aqualift is a CE-certified product and is applied thousands of times worldwide. For more information just lookup aqualift-latino in google.
