Will above muscle implants and incision under, affect breastfeeding?

Generous135131
I had breast implants placed above the muscle in 2019. The incision is under my breast. Will this affect breastfeeding? My surgeon told me it wouldn’t. I get conflicting answers online. Some say have implants above the muscle can harm milk production.
