Can I have i-Lipo while I am breastfeeding?

Question

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I would suggest avoiding any cosmetic procedures during breast feeding although you could pump milk and store it before the procedure and use this for 3-7 days after while you are on medications.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Renata Wix-Harris, MD · Answer

I advice my patients not to have Laser Lipo while breastfeeding, since some of the medications in the numbing solution used during the procedure are absorbed by the body and can be excreted in breast milk. The same goes for the medications taken by mouth before and after the procedure. Better safe than sorry! Good luck.
