Steam rooms, saunas, jacuzzi's, hot baths will not affect your implants wheather they are saline or silicone gel. Your core body temperature (where the implants are) will remain within a few degrees of normal regardless of the outside temperature.

You may want to wait several weeks after your augmentation before getting into the sauna. This way, your incisions should be well healed by then and the heat should have little impact on your scarring.
Once you are fully healed, I see no reason why you could not go in a sauna. This would typically be around 4 weeks on average.
I would avoid saunas until you are completely healed. This may take about 3-4 weeks. I would not go in too soon.
Once you are fully healed, there should be no reason you cannot get into a sauna or continue with any of the activities you are used to.

Severe pain this long after breast augmentation is not expected. Your past history (incision, implant type, evolution of discomfort) and physical examination are all relevant and should be reviewed by your plastic surgeon.
A medium size breast implant always looks best. If you go too large on a small or thin frame, it will be obvious that you have implants. I have the patient bring in a bra of the cup size she wishes to be about two weeks before the surgery, and we try on implants - bigger and bigger - until...
If you are referring to the time the actual surgery will take, that can vary with the surgeon, usually about an hour and a half. But if you are wondering how long the surgery results will last, that can vary greatly from patient to patient. The implant manufacturers have a lifelong warranty on ...
