1. Introduction: Aesthetic Treatments During Breastfeeding
Breastfeeding is a delicate time, and when it comes to medical aesthetics, it’s important to ensure any treatments are safe for both you and your baby. At The Re/ Clinic in Sandy, UT, we’ve compiled a list of treatments to avoid while breastfeeding and safer alternatives to consider.
2. Treatments to Avoid
Botox & Dysport
These botulinum toxin-based treatments should be avoided, as there is no conclusive evidence that they’re safe for breastfeeding mothers.
Chemical Peels
The strong acids used in chemical peels can be absorbed into the bloodstream and potentially affect breast milk.
Laser Treatments
Laser treatments can penetrate the skin and heat underlying tissues, including mammary glands, making them unsuitable during breastfeeding.
Injectable Fillers
While hyaluronic acid-based fillers are generally safe, there isn’t enough research to confirm their safety during breastfeeding.
Body Contouring
Non-invasive treatments like CoolSculpting should be postponed as the body metabolizes fat during breastfeeding.
3. Safe Alternatives
If you’re breastfeeding, there are still aesthetic treatments you can enjoy safely:
- Facials: Hydrating and gentle facials are a great option.
- Microdermabrasion: A non-invasive, exfoliating treatment to refresh your skin.
- Skin Care: Regular use of gentle skincare products like serums and moisturizers.
At The Re/ Clinic, we offer safe and non-invasive treatments tailored for breastfeeding mothers.
