How often do smokers have problems after a facelift
Answer: Nicotine and facelift Most surgeon are testing for nicotine because avoiding it is so important in reducing your risk of complications. If you are having trouble maintaining your weight without it I would suggest seeing a weight loss specialist to address ways to manage your weight without nicotine use. Nicotine constricts your blood vessels for about 90 mins so if you smoke a pack per day, that's all day long! Constricting your blood vessels can decrease the healing cells that get to the area as well as antibiotics.

Answer: Skin Loss in Smokers after Facelift You are referring to the feared complication of skin slough after facelift surgery. As you imply, smokers have a significantly higher risk for this problem to arise. The exact risk depends on multiple factors including facelift technique: It can be minimized by using a deep-plane facelift but the risk is still higher than in non-smokers. Numbers found in the literature range from 3% to 20%.

Answer: What is the percentage of dying skin on smokers having a Facelift? Smokers most likely always have problems healing after facelift. Total abstinence from nicotine in any form for 8 weeks before a facelift is what I recommend.The entire cheek skin can be lost and is impossible to reconstruct without horrible scars. Do not try it while smoking.
