I had my baby 3 months ago and am breastfeeding. Is it safe to get Botox injections?
Answer: Breastfeeding and Botox Hi there! I’m Lauren, the aesthetic injector here at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center. While many providers consider Botox to be low risk during breastfeeding, it is generally recommended to wait until you have finished breastfeeding before receiving Botox treatments.

Answer: Botox and Breastfeeding I would not recommend getting Botox injections while breastfeeding. I do not offer Botox injections to my breastfeeding patients. It is unclear if Botox can spread to breast milk or harm a nursing infant. There are no clinical studies to either confirm or refute this assumption, but safety is always the priority. I would recommend that women postpone the procedure until after nursing. Krishna Vyas, MD, PhD, MHSHarvard and Mayo Clinic Trained Aesthetic and Plastic SurgeonNew York, New York

Answer: Would not recommend I would not recommend getting Botox while breastfeeding, and do not offer it to my breastfeeding patients. There aren't really any good studies on the topic (it would be really hard to study this), so being conservative and cautious is the way to go.
