Answer: Rhinoplasty and Breast Surgery While breast feeding does not interfere with your healing from surgery, I always recommend that my patients finish breast feeding before having elective surgery if possible. The medications that you're given for your surgery (anesthesia, pain medications) can be passed on to your baby in breast milk. In some cases, I have also had a patient stop breast feeding and feed her baby with frozen milk or formula if necessary until all anesthetic and pain medications are out of her system.

Answer: Can I have rhinoplasty while still breastfeeding? Hello,I recommend that you wait to have rhinoplasty until you are finished breastfeeding. I don't advise going under any type of sedation while breastfeeding since you should not risk the baby ingesting any residual anesthesia that can be passed through breast milk. Enjoy your new baby!Be Well,Michael R. Macdonald, MD, FACS, FRCSC

Answer: Breast feeding and rhinoplasty It is not advisable to undergo general anesthesia and then breast feed. Some of those medications will linger in your body fat and also with a young baby you do not want to add more stress in your life. What if you get a complication and you have to take care of your baby?RegardsDr. J
