I have had two babies and exclusively pumped each time due to latch issues. My breasts are now extremely saggy and deflated. I would like to get breast implants, but I am not 100% sure if I am done having babies. How badly would another pregnant ruin the augmentation? Would it matter if I didn’t breastfeed? Also, is it more expensive to do a lift with the implants?

Answer: Breast Augmentation and Pregnancy Thank you for your question. After pregnancy many women need breast implants to address the loss of volume, and a breast lift to address laxity. While it can be tricky to plan cosmetic surgery around pregnancy plans, I usually advise that patients wait until after they are done having children. A future pregnancy, breast feeding, or pumping will not ruin your implants, but it will affect the breast tissue, which can change the appearance of your surgical outcome. If you experienced breast changes with your previous pregnancies, you would likely experience changes with any additional pregnancies. When you are ready, be sure to schedule a consult with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Would pregnancy ruin breast implants? The breasts will usually increase in size during pregnancy and affect the implants pocket. I highly recommend to finish with the pregnancies and then consider to fix the breast area or have now the augmentation and after the pregnancy has a consultation and sees how the breast change with the pregnancy. Make sure to contact a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Good luck :)
