How Soon After Giving Birth Can I Get Breast Implants?

How Soon After Giving Birth Can I Get Breast Implants? | Houston SurgeryBreast augmentation is a popular procedure that women seek after giving birth to their children. This procedure can help rejuvenate the breasts and help women feel more comfortable with their bodies again. Before undergoing breast augmentation, there are some considerations to keep in mind. During your consultation, your surgeon will help you with determining when you will be ready to undergo the procedure. Board certified plastics surgeons at the Aesthetic Center for Plastic Surgery (ACPS) provide breast augmentation to patients in Houston, Texas, TX, and surrounding locations.

Breast Augmentation After Childbirth

The breasts go through many changes throughout pregnancy and after childbirth. During pregnancy, the breasts store fat and eventually produce milk, causing them to enlarge and swell. When the breasts stop producing milk after childbirth, they may begin to look loose and deflated. Weight gain and loss can also contribute to sagging, loose skin. Mothers should wait at least three to six months after nursing and lose any pregnancy weight if desired before considering breast implants. These steps will help ensure the breasts are done changing in size and the results from breast augmentation are more likely to be permanent.

Breast Lift for Better Results

The breasts look best when the nipples are as centered as possible. Usually, during breast augmentation, the implants are able to lift the skin enough to have the nipples remain centered. If the breasts have too much excess skin, the nipples will rest too low on the implants and appear off. Your surgeon may recommend a breast lift to achieve the best-looking results.
