I want really large implants around 1000cc would this affect breastfeeding in the future?
Answer: Breastfeeding with implants It's perfectly ok for you to breastfeed with implants. As the incisions are under the fold of the breast or through your armpit, you should not have any problems breastfeeding. It is no different than any women who didn’t have İmplants.

Answer: Breastfeeding As with any breast surgery there is a chance that future breastfeeding ability can be impacted. Larger implants could influence this to a further degree. I encourage you to speak with your surgeon about your concerns. I've included a video that I hope you find helpful.

Answer: Implants Such mammoth implants will affect everything about your breasts, and yes, can decrease your ability to breast feed. Your own breast tissue and skin will be stretched very thinly over such implants, and you will probably look like you have 2 basketballs on your chest. Please do not do this!

Answer: Implants and Breastfeeding Family planning is a somewhat fluid process which may or may not conform to a schedule. Thus it becomes difficult to plan elective surgery around events that may come at some point in the future. The question of timing of elective body contouring as it relates to pregnancy is ultimately dependent upon expectations. There are a number of changes that occur during pregnancy (some more reversible than others) which may potentially compromise your overall aesthetic result. With this in mind, the best thing that can be done is understanding how your body may (or may not) change post pregnancy and preparing appropriately. It is important to remember that pregnancy changes more than just your weight. There will be changes in muscle and skin tone which in some cases will not return to baseline. The safest recommendation is to maintain a healthy lifestyle (diet and exercise) through pregnancy and afterwards. This will ensure a greater likelihood of a return to form. This is by no means a guarantee but it will help. Lastly, be prepared for the possibility (eventuality) of further procedures in the future to regain your pre-pregnancy form. Additionally, the presence of implants and a prior lift should not influence your decision to breast feed. You should be able to safely breast feed regardless of prior surgery and should consider doing so for the sake of the newborn. There is mountains of data regarding the immunologic benefits of breastfeeding. In summary, with regards to your specific question, implant size will not impact breastfeeding. Ductal integrity regardless of size is operative technique dependent. As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Need more information and in person evaluation to fully answer..... Not all women are naturally able to breast feed but in my experience if they were able they still were able.
