Aesthetic treatments during pregnancy and breastfeeding

Which treatments are usually postponed, and what is generally considered gentle.

The general rule

Most clinics postpone injectables, lasers and strong peels during pregnancy and breastfeeding, mainly because of limited safety data.

Skincare adjustments

Retinoids are generally avoided. Your doctor or midwife can advise which products suit you.

Always ask

Tell any practitioner if you are pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding.
