Tongue Tie Release

 

Tongue tie is a common condition that occasionally contributes to breastfeeding difficulties, including a shallow and painful latch, cracked, bleeding and bruised nipples, poor weight gain and decreased milk supply. If tongue tie is determined to be the cause of a feeding issue, the solution is easy.

  • Tongue tie release is an in-office procedure utilizing scissors

  • Anterior release is available

  • If you are not a member, Dr. Kopelman requires previous evaluation by an IBCLC or a lactation visit with her (included in the service).

  • Children must be 8 weeks or younger for Dr. Kopelman to perform the procedure.

  • Vitamin K injection is required prior to procedure.

    Price is $550 for non-members and includes a full Lactation Consultation.
