How cohesive is this gel under hot body temperatures? it seems to get softer in hotter temps
Answer: Interesting I once heard that a saline implant froze in the arctic but that may be a plastic surgery myth, given all the surgery in steaming hot south america I would not think its an issue!

Answer: Body temp and implants I'm not aware of any issues with high body temps affecting any type of breast implants, even the cohesive ones.

Answer: Body temperature and gel implants Silicone gel implants have been engineered and designed to withstand normal body temperatures. This would include conditions in which you have a fever or if you were in a severely hot climate. The implant material will not destabilize or change unless you subject them to temperatures that your own body could not tolerate.

Answer: Impact of Heat on Cohesive Silicone Gel Implants Cohesive silicone gel implants are designed to withstand normal and warmer (i.e., hot tubs, fever) body temperature ranges. Should you chose to use a hot tub or suntan for example, you may find that the implant is warmer (“softer”) than the rest of your body as your body cools down more quickly than theimplant.Karen Singer, M.D., P.A.Harvard GraduateBoard Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Your Implants Are Safe in the Heat Don't worry — your silicone implants are completely safe at any body temperature. Implant manufacturers run extensive tests to be sure that their devices hold up and perform perfectly whether you're at the North Pole or the equator. Even if you had a very high fever, your implants would be equally cohesive and strong. It's an interesting question, though, so thanks for asking!
