Can I go to the sauna with a breast implant?

Visiting a sauna with breast implants may initially cause concern, especially when you consider that the sauna can reach temperatures of up to 90 degrees Celsius or even more. However, it is reassuring to know that breast implants, whether silicone or saline-filled, are designed and tested to withstand such extreme conditions. This is a testament to the advanced scientific methods and rigorous testing they undergo.

A major concern for many women is whether these artificial materials inserted into their bodies are truly resistant to such high temperatures. It is important to understand that the manufacturing process of breast implants is subject to strict quality standards. During this process, they are exposed to extreme conditions, including temperatures that are significantly higher than those in a sauna during the sterilisation process. Therefore, it is quite safe to say that a visit to the sauna will not affect the integrity or lifespan of your implants.

However, there are some important things to consider when deciding to go to the sauna with breast implants:

  1. Timing: It is crucial to ensure that sufficient time has passed for the healing process after a breast augmentation before being exposed to the heat of a sauna. This usually means that all surgical scars should be fully healed. The heat can disrupt the healing process by causing inflammation or exacerbating existing inflammation. There is also a risk of open wounds becoming infected. Therefore, it is important to get your surgeon's approval before entering a sauna.
  2. Sensitivity reactions: After surgery, some women may find that their breasts are more sensitive to extreme temperatures. It is important to listen to your body and, if necessary, reduce your time in the sauna or avoid visiting altogether until this sensitivity has normalised.
  3. Perception of implant temperature: Some women report a feeling that their implants seem "warmer" in a hot environment. This is usually due to the way the material of the implant conducts heat. It is important to note that this perception, although perhaps unpleasant, is usually harmless.

Finally, it should be emphasised that it is always advisable to consult a doctor or medical professional if you have any concerns. It is essential to remember that every body is unique and can react individually to different stimuli. A healthcare professional can best assess your specific needs and concerns and advise you accordingly.
