I got dermal fillers today without really thinking about it. I am breastfeeding my 2 month old and I am now petrified that I might harm her. Should i dissolve the fillers in order to continue breastfeeding?
Answer: Dermal Fillers while Breastfeeding I appreciate your concern. Dermal fillers contain a very small amount of hyaluronic acid and lidocaine that would not negatively affect your baby while you are breast-feeding. Of course, it is important to discuss the potential risks and benefits of each procedure with your doctor!

Answer: Dermal Fillers while Breastfeeding I appreciate your concern, but I assure you the one treatment you had should be completely safe for your baby. I never recommend elective treatments to women that are pregnant or breastfeeding as a general rule, since the benefits do not tend to outweigh the risks. However, the small amount of hyaluronic acid and lidocaine you received during your procedure should not significantly impact your breast milk. I would recommend waiting for any further treatments until after you are finished nursing, however, just to be on the safe side.

Answer: Dermal Fillers and breastfeeding Typically it’s recommended that you don’t get dermal fillers while pregnant or breastfeeding as the effects are unknown. That said, the mounts of lidocaine and dermal filler product are minimal so it shouldn’t greatly affect your breast milk. But if you still have concerns I recommend that you speak to your doctor.

Answer: Dermal Fillers while Breastfeeding I appreciate your concern. If you had a hyaluronic acid filler, both you and your baby should be absolutely fine. As a general rule, I do not recommend getting any elective procedures while you are pregnant or nursing, since the benefits do not tend to outweigh the risks. However, in your case, there should be no adverse effects from your treatment. I would wait for additional procedures until you are finished breastfeeding, just to be on the safe side.

Answer: Yes - it is safe for Hyaluronic Acid fillers. (Juvederm, Restylane, Versa etc...) Yes - hyaluronic acid fillers are safe to during breastfeeding and even pregnancy. There is lidocaine mixed with the product and it is only a small amount. Dentists routinely perform dental procedures using lidocaine in pregnancy and breast feeding. Please note: Botox is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. If you have any questions - you can also speak with your OB-GYN.
