Breastfeeding after implant removal?

It’s understandable to have concerns. Subglandular implants (placed above the muscle) can sometimes affect milk ducts or breast tissue, potentially impacting breastfeeding, especially if significant glandular compression occurred. However, many women are still able to breastfeed after implant removal, particularly if the ducts and nerves remain intact. Future breastfeeding ability depends on how your body heals and the extent of any tissue disruption. Erman AK, Dr. MD, Plastic Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgeon

Hello, thank you for your question. I am sorry to hear about your experience, and it is understandable to feel concerned about the impact on breastfeeding. Here's some information that might help you as you move forward. I have attached a detailed video that answers your question specifically. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out. I have linked our website for additional information. It is great that you are seeking solutions and information to make the best decisions for your health and future. Getting a thorough evaluation from a specialist will give you the clearest picture of how to proceed and what steps to take.

Since you already have implants in place, providing the surgery is done again through the incision in the inframammary fold, it is unlikely that this will have any additional impact on breastfeeding in the future. Best wishes with your current and future family.
