Breast Milk and Restylane

User Avatar

There have been no studies done on Restalyn and breast feeding. It suprises me, since there is obviously a need for new mothers to want to maintain their youthful look. I don't see the harm in Restalyn and breast feeding, being that the substance is natural and is expected to remain at the localized site. But just like all concerned mother's, we should confirm this. Where Can I Send the Breast Milk to Be Tested After Restylane? I would like to know if there are any trace amounts that make it into the breastmilk and if so, how can it possibly harm the child?
