if you had breast implants would you still be able to breastfeed?

Question:

Answers:
It's likely, but it depends on the kind of surgery you had. Incisions made under the fold of the breast or through the armpit shouldn't cause any trouble. The most popular method, making a "smile" incision around the areola, puts you at greater risk for problems.

If the nerves around the areola were not cut or damaged during surgery, you may be able to nurse fully or partially. Nerves are vital to breastfeeding because they trigger the brain to release prolactin and oxytocin, two hormones that affect milk production. Your chances of breastfeeding also improve if your milk duct system is intact.

However if the silicone implants leak, not only are they very damaging to the mother's health but very damaging to the nursing baby.

its possible

I believe ypu can still breastfeed because they dont really take any breast tissue that includes your mammary glands and ducts during the operation they just implant those silicon under the tissue.Breastmilk production is influenced by hormones in the body particulary on the anterior part of the pituitary gland which secretes prolatin allowing your mammary glands to secrete milk

If its done by a board-certified plastic surgeon, the answer will be "yes". Anyone less, good luck.

Yes. A friend of mine had hers about 5 months before she got pregnant and her obgyn and surgeon said it would be fine.

The cost of breast implant surgery is very less in India.There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges cosmetic surgery for foreigners in India.They are called the Forerunners Healthcare.I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories.I have also read that they arrange financing for international patients as cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance in USA or by the stinking NHS in UK

They also have photos pasted of their International patients.You can checkout their website.The cost savings are incredible.As a doctor i personally believe that your surgery can be easily handled in India as the quality of healthcare available here is simply best in the world.The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star .

My cousin got her cosmetic surgery for breast implants and rhinoplasty surgery and she is more than very happy with the results.SHe is all praise for this forerunners healthcare companyfor the services they provided her.She paid just 30% of the cost what she was quoted in USA and it was like a wonderful vacation for her.Excellent stay,food, best surgeons-she just couldnt stop talking.hope this helps.
