I have breastfed 3 children for at least 3 years each and I may still have one more child but will be getting an augmentation before my last child. I am leaning toward subglandular placement but am concerned about breastfeeding ability after the procedure, which is very important to me.
Answer: Submuscular vs. Subglandular Statistically you should be able to breast feed regardless whether your implants are submuscular or subglandular. I would recomend avoiding the peri-areolar incision and select an inframammary incision.

Answer: Breastfeeding after implant I have not seen any evidence that sub glandular placement of implants would interfere with breast feeding, but Be sure to discuss your goals and concerns with your board certified plastic surgeon and consider the pros and the cons. Be certain your surgeon is properly certified. I've attached a link where you can start your search.

Answer: Breastfeeding post BA Hello,Thank you for your question. Other than incisions around the areolas which can pose a risk to nipple function, the placement of an implant subglandular or subpectoral should not negatively affect breastfeeding. All the best

Answer: Breast Feeding After Augmentation The vast majority of woman who undergo breast augmentation are able to successfully breast-feed. This is true whether or not implants are placed above or below the muscle. The one consideration to discuss with your surgeon is incision placement. Incision was made along the areola have a slightly higher risk of injury to the breast ducts which may affect the ability to express milk. To be safe, I would encourage an inframammary or axillary incision.
