Breastfeeding with Breast Implants – Is it Possible?
A commonly asked question among women at Centre for Surgery is ‘Can you breastfeed with breast implants?’ The answer is Yes! Breastfeeding with breast implants is possible, but there are factors to consider.
Procedures such as breast augmentation, breast lift, and breast reduction can potentially affect the nerves and ducts within the breast, which can have an impact on lactation. Some procedures may affect breastfeeding more than others. Therefore, if you plan to have a baby in the future, it is generally recommended to wait until you have completed your family.
Breast implants can cause challenges when it comes to breastfeeding, such as the compression of milk ducts and nerves, which could make breastfeeding more difficult. The size and weight of the implants could have an impact on whether or not you face with breastfeeding.

There are two main options for implant placement: above or below the muscle.
One of the possible risks with breast is that they could impact milk flow because the implants can put pressure on the milk ducts, which can cause disruption. The risk of breastfeeding difficulties is higher with above-muscle implants.
Above-the-muscle implants, also known as retroglandular or sub-glandular implants, are positioned behind the breast tissue and in front of the muscle. Because of their placement, they can compress the milk ducts and nerves, causing difficulties with breastfeeding.
Under-the-muscle implants, also known as retromuscular or submuscular implants, are positioned below the pectoral muscle, which also gives additional support to the breasts. They are also less likely to compress the milk ducts and nerves, so women are generally more likely to successfully breastfeed.
Placing the implants under the muscle offers more benefits, such as a more appearance, a lower risk of complications, and a high chance of successful .
Breast Surgery and Its Impact on Breastfeeding
Some procedures, such as breast reduction surgery, inverted nipple surgery, breast lift surgery, and mastectomy, can increase the chances of experiencing difficulties with breastfeeding.

In this case, it is unlikely that you will be able to breastfeed after having a mastectomy.

Top Tips to improve milk supply for breastfeeding mothers
Improving milk supply can be a common concern for breastfeeding mothers. Here are some top tips to help increase and maintain milk supply:
