Question
Hi,
HIFU treatment is definitely safe during breastfeeding. As the treatment is ultrasound-based and directed purely at the skin, there is absolutely no concern of any risk to your child via breast milk transmission.
This applies to other aesthetic laser procedures as well.
Potential risks, however, exist with some oral medication and injections, so exercise caution for such treatments and discuss fully with your preferred aesthetic doctor.
Hope this helps!
High-intensity focused ultrasound is a novel non-invasive technology used for the treatment of tumours in many parts of our body, ie uterine, breast, kidney, liver and prostate. HIFU is safe to be used on the body or the face for nursing mothers. Just inform the doctor before any treatment that you are breast feeding. Even then, most pain killer medications are fine to be consumed during breast feeding.

I would advise you to find a dentist to get a thorough dental examination. He/She would be able to advise and plan a list of dental procedures that you will need to improve your oral health. If cost is a concern, you can always have the attending dentist present a treatment plan to you before proceeding on with any dental treatment. This would also prevent miscommunication.
A woman who has not had vaginal sex can choose whether she wants a transvaginal or transvaginal ultrasound. If a woman with an intact hymen prefers, her doctor can perform or arrange for a trans-abdominal ultrasound scan for the patient rather than a transvaginal ultrasound, so as to avoid breaking of the hymen. However, a transabdominal ultrasound may have some limitations compared to the transvaginal approach, especially for clear visualisation of pelvic pathologies.
