Is there scientific evidence that implants have a negative effect on being able to breastfeed? Does the milk production happen without any problem? I'm referring to cases where the areola remains unharmed and the implant was inserted from under the breast. Does the position of the implant have an impact? Many thanks.

Answer: Breast Feeding Post Breast Augmentation There is no scientific evidence that supports any negative effects for breast feeding moms with implants. You should not have any difficulty breast feeding post breast augmentation. I do prefer to place the implants in the subpectoral position with an infammamory incision, it is my belief that this helps preserve breast sensation and helps reduce any problems with breast feeding .

Answer: Breastfeeding after breast augmentation surgery In most cases, breast augmentation surgery will not interfere with breastfeeding because milk ducts are generally not disturbed during the procedure. When implants are placed through an incision made around the areola, milk ducts are sometimes disrupted, which may affect breastfeeding. However, not all women are naturally able to breastfeed, whether or not they have cosmetic breast surgery. For more information on this and similar topics, I recommend a plastic surgery Q&A book like "The Scoop On Breasts: A Plastic Surgeon Busts the Myths."
