Usually 4-6 months: But this will depend on the extent if your breast enlargement during pregnancy and if there is any degree of breast engorgement or length of nursing/lactation.

Not ideally: Good morning! i do not recommend breast augmentation right after childbirth, there are too many factors at play to accurately choose the appropriate implant size, shape, and position of your implant right after childbirth. In addition, it is thought that active milk ducts can increase the risk of implant infection. I hope this helps.

No: It is wise to wait at least 6 months after having a baby to have breast surgery due to the change in breast shape and volume from maternal hormones during and after pregnancy.

Not Good Idea.: No, it is not a good idea to undergo breast augmentation that early after c-section. Best to achieve a long-term stable weight, allow the press to achieve a “steady state” and allow be at least 3 months out of breast-feeding before proceeding. Remember, that you also have a newborn in the house needing your attention... Best wishes.

No: Your breasts will still be engorged (full of milk) which can cause serious complications. A minimum of three months after you finish breastfeeding is appropriate.

Too soon: Most surgeons advise waiting 6 months after pregnancy, and 3 months after stopping breast feeding before going for a breast augmentation.
