Breast lift surgery can affect breastfeeding. This procedure typically involves cutting some of the mammary ducts to achieve breast reshaping, which may impair milk production and have a certain impact on lactation. Therefore, patients who are breastfeeding are not advised to undergo breast lift surgery. It is recommended to wait until after weaning before having the surgical correction.
