What cosmetic treatment is deemed safe while breastfeeding?

Because there is little known about the safety of certain aesthetic treatments during pregnancy, it is generally recommended to wait until after pregnancy and breastfeeding before receiving treatment. There are still things you can do to help your skin feel fresh and healthy during pregnancy. You can relax with a facial and enjoy soothing medical grade skin care products to enhance skin tone and texture.

Hello and thank you for your question. In our practice we primarily follow the FDA's recommendations for treatments and unfortunately since most products and treatments have not been thoroughly tested on pregnant or lactating women, we will not offer them until the woman has completed breastfeeding. The only procedure we would offer is our standard facial. Throughout pregnancy and lactation our bodies can undergo many changes due to weight fluctuations and hormones. Because it can be such a transformative period of your life, it's best to finish up nursing and then work on the areas of concern, once your body has reached its new normal. We also highly recommend visiting a board certified plastic surgery office with staff that are highly trained in neurotoxin and filler injections, as well as any type of threads, such as Instalift. I hope this helps and best of luck to you!
