I want to do a fat transfer to my breasts and a tummy tuck at the same time. I'm nursing my baby and want to do so for as long as I can. But I'm not sure if I'll be able to do the fat transfer in a few months because I'm normally very thin and losing fat quickly. Can I do the fat transfer while nursing (while my breasts are larger than normal from pregnancy/nursing)? Will the extra flow of blood to my breasts help the fat survive? Does the answer change if using BRAVA with the fat transfer?

Answer: Recommendation against breast surgery if nursing I advise any nursing mother to stop nursing for at least 6 months before breast surgery. If you are still nursing, I would not perform any type of breast surgery or any elective surgery since you run the risk of having unwanted medication or drugs in your milk that could possibly be transmitted to your baby. This is the safest and healthiest decision for your child.
