Are there any risks to getting BBL laser treatments while breastfeeding?

lasers, peels, skincare and fillers/botox in my practice are all done while breast feeding. there is minimal to no risk. I suggest pretreating your skinskin with emeragecosmetics emerageskin aerify and microneedling systems to get your skin ready. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi and thanks for your question!There are no specific medical studies using these therapies while pregnant or breastfeeding.Biologically, there should be no reason to think that light treatment (BBL) would harm breast milk, but again, I have no data to support that.The laser treatments themselves only treat the very superficial layers of skin, so in theory should also be safe; however the lidocaine topical numbing cream does have the possibility of getting in the bloodstream and affecting breastmilk.If lidocaine is needed, it is recommended that you "pump and dump" for 24 hours afterwards, to avoid baby receiving any in the milk.Hope this helps!
