Question:

plastic suregery question...?

people who get plastic surger done on their face or implants, when its really hot won't they start melting?

Answer:

there actually isn't all that much plastic used in plastic surgery. The materials that are used however will only melt at extremely high temperatures that we don't experience in a normal environment.
Erm......no, because it doesn't literally mean PLASTIC surgery. Here is why it is called Plastic Surgery: 'The word plastic comes from the Greek word plastikos, meaning to mold or shape. Many of the first plastic surgeries were developed to close a difficult wound or replace tissue lost due to injury or cancer. These procedures often involved the formation of a skin flap to reshape or mold the defect so as to approximate the original shape.' Hope this helps : )
Reminds me of the movie Brazil. ;-) Plastic surgery refers to altering the body, not literally plastic implants. There can be implanted materials with some procedures but the temperature a person could tolerate wouldn't bother them. Aloha
Plastic surgery is not done with Saran Wrap. Plastic, as a word, means flexible. Plastic Surgery is the manipulation of your existing tissue, not the addition of Glad Sandwich Bags to your forehead.
Are you serious? Is this a for real question? Most plastic surgeries happen in California - where it is HOT! What do you think?
