Is Vanquish safe while breastfeeding?

Question

I just did vanquish and I'm currently breastfeeding. Is it safe to continue breastfeeding my babies?

Kevin Haney, MD · Answer

The Vanquish is for body shaping and circumferential reduction of abdomen and thighs. It uses Selective RF (radio frequency) technology that targets the largest treatment area in a single session. Due to the use of RF, I would not recommend continuing to Vanquish until you are done breastfeeding. That should have been one of the things your provider covered with you beforehand.

George R. Merriman II, MD · Answer

Vanquish is not recommended while breastfeeding.  I would discontinue your treatment until you are no longer breast feeding, and I would recommend letting your pediatrician know.
Congratulations on your new baby.

Hi,Most likely you haven't caused harm to your babies but Vanquish is not recommended during pregnancy and nursing.  I would talk to your provider about finishing your series after you stop nursing.Warmly,Dr.Liu
