Would Rough Sex Burst My Saline Breast Implants?
Regarding: "How Much Pressure Can Saline Breast Implants Withstand? i'm kinda into rough sex and wanted to know how much pressure can be applied to saline implants"
Breast Implants are engineered to withstand a large amount of sudden pressure and an even larger amount of gradually increasing pressure. Although one can never discount the depth and heights of both human ingenuity and stupidity, I seriously doubt you and your partner can generate enough sudden pressure to...

Saline breast implant rupture, leak or deflation
Saline implants are remarkably durable. I have punctured them with a needle and this still do nto deflate unless squeezed. Repeated folding may cause them to rupture inthe the same way a wire hanger will break when repeatedly folded. If you were to participate in rough sex everyday perhaps your implants would rupture earlier than a person who did not do so. However, they can withstand signifcant amounts of pressure, I can stand on them with a shoe and my full body weight and they...

No Worries!
Blunt force does relatively nothing to implants unless they have been weakened by severe rippling. A long as you avoid sharp objects, you should be fine.

How durable are saline breast implants ?
Thanks for the question.
Saline implants are extremely durable utilizing a silicone elastomer shell. I think you would be safe to undergo most day to day activities.
Best of luck,

Breast implant rupture or deflation
Breast implants (both companies Allergan and Mentor) makes extremely good implants with durable silicone elastomer shells. I have met and even worked with the biomedical engineers involved in testing and production of the implants. When the "test" each implant they fill them up to something at least as large as basketballs even for very small implant sizes to test the "burst strength". At some point they will rupture but it is like filling a water...

Rough sex and breast implants
If the sex is rough enough to break a rib you might have to worry about rupturing a breast implant. Otherwise, knock yourself out. Good luck!

Saline implants are tough and hard to rupture
The saline implant is very durable and compressible and is difficult to rupture, even with rough sex. You can expect to put your breast to any physical challenge without worry.

Implants have a warranty against rupture
Implants have a lifetime guarantee against rupture regardless of the cause, so they are very durable. Implants have even saved lives by stopping shrapnel that would have otherwise penetrated the chest.

Saline Breast Implants for Breast Augmentation Tolerate Rough Sex
Saline breast implants are well made and in fact are usually warrantied for rupture by the manufacture. Initially it would be extremely hard to break the implant though blunt trauma to them, however over time the shell and valves can become worn and can leak. If a leak develops pressure will cause the deflation to occur quicker. We have not seen a rupture develop from rough handling. Sharp objects are more likely to cause a rupture of the saline breast implant...

Implants and rough sex
I don't think you have to worry unless you plan on becoming a human dart board. I have had patient hit steering wheels in car accidents and break ribs while the implants remain intact. I think you can rest assure you will be fine. Enjoy your implants.
