Hi Lauren,

Thanks for your question 🙂
Smoking constricts blood vessels, reducing the circulation of oxygen and nutrients crucial to healing wounds. You need to be nicotine for at least 6 weeks before and after surgery. Smoking after surgery can raise the rate of infection, wound healing problems and other complications.
