"Even though I’m pregnant, I still want to look good!" This might be what many moms are thinking as they look for tips to maintain their beauty during pregnancy. However, when it comes to visiting a beauty clinic, questions often arise: “Can pregnant moms have beauty treatments?”
Treatments pregnant or breastfeeding moms should avoid
However, for the safety of the unborn baby, all treatments and procedures—both injectable and machine-based—should be avoided during pregnancy. This includes:
- Botox and fat-dissolving injections
- Facial fillers and skin fillers
- Juvelook, Sculptra, and HArmonyCa
- AuraWhite, MADE Collagen, and vitamin drips
- Rejuran and Chanels injections
- BeautyMeal weight loss pen
- Ultraformer III, Thermage, and Oliogio
All of these treatments at MEGA CLINIC are not suitable for pregnant women. If you still have unused sessions in your package, the clinic will hold them for you to use once the breastfeeding period is over.
Treatments breastfeeding moms can have
There are some non-injectable treatments, such as skin-tightening procedures using energy-based devices. These treatments deliver energy waves into the skin without affecting breastfeeding babies.
At MEGA CLINIC, two options are offered for breastfeeding moms: Thermage and Ultraformer III.
Thermage: Skin tightening and fat reduction
Thermage is an innovative treatment that lifts sagging skin and reduces fat on areas like the cheeks or under the chin—no injections needed. It’s perfect for moms who want to contour their face, achieve a slimmer look, and keep their skin youthful.

Thermage benefits for postpartum moms
- Thermage uses high-frequency radio waves to stimulate collagen production in the skin’s deeper layers. Its heat energy also helps dissolve fat in targeted areas, delivering results only where the doctor performs the treatment. It’s completely safe for the baby.
- Many moms worry about changes to their face and body during pregnancy, like gaining weight or having a rounder face. Thermage can help maintain a slim and firm appearance, so you can feel confident after delivery.
- Thermage is a one-time treatment with long-lasting results, so there’s no need for frequent sessions.
Ultraformer III: Skin tightening for a slim face
This lifting treatment uses technology that many moms might already be familiar with. The Ultraformer III device works by delivering Micro and Macro Focused Ultrasound (MMFU) energy. This is the same type of ultrasound used in pregnancy scans, but at a higher frequency. The energy creates heat that stimulates the production of new collagen under the skin.

Benefits of Ultraformer III for postpartum moms
- The technology used by Ultraformer III is similar to ultrasound machines for pregnancy scans, making it very safe. It effectively tightens the skin, and the results last for 6–8 months.
- This treatment is great for pregnant moms worried about sagging skin, a double chin, droopy cheeks, or unclear jawlines. It’s perfect for moms looking to firm their skin and achieve a V-shaped face without injections, which are not allowed during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- Ultraformer III is a way to care for yourself, keeping your face slim, firm, and smooth. It also reduces fine lines and helps prevent new wrinkles that might appear due to stress from taking care of a baby. Many postpartum moms choose this treatment to avoid looking tired or worn out.
Summary
So, breastfeeding moms, how do you feel after reading this article? While it’s true that you can’t have injection-based treatments during this time, you can still enhance your beauty with procedures like Thermage and Ultraformer III.
If you’re deciding between Thermage and Ultraformer III, it’s important to consider your facial features, skin sagging, wrinkles, and areas with excess fat. Think about what concerns you most:
If your main concern is tightening the skin, achieving a clearer jawline, and looking younger, Ultraformer III is a great choice. If you’re worried about chubby cheeks or a double chin along with skin sagging, Thermage can give you a more contoured, firm face with all-around results.
