I would like to get this done, but plan to breastfeed my baby. Would it cause any problems while I'm breastfeeding?

Do not receive miraDry treatment while breast-feeding
One should not receive miraDry treatment while breast-feeding as lidocaine is injected into the underarm area prior to treatment and could potentially cross into the breast milk. However, as soon as you stop breast-feeding, it is safe to do.

No, it is not safe.
No, being that we will be injecting lidocaine into the area and it would not be safe for the baby.
