Is Two Months After Breastfeeding Long Enough to Wait, Before I Get Breast Augmentation?

UtahSpaBaby
I stopped breastfeeding on February 27th 2012, and I would like to get breast augmentation and a tummy tuck on April 24th. I had a mammogram last week and it made my breast leak a little milk, but they do squeeze them into pancakes. Would I be putting myself at risk by having my surgery not quite two months after nursing?
