Dear futuredassdolll,I ask my patients to stop smoking at lest two weeks before the surgery. I would suggest you to call your plastic surgery office and ask them.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

I have a lot of patients who smoke marijuana, and I have them stop before surgery and after surgery for at least 6 weeks. Best to phone your plastic surgeon's office and ask.   You do not want to compromise your result.

Thanks for your question. Best advice is to contact your board certified surgeon to discuss your specific situation with him/her.

This in of itself is not dangerous but you should discuss with your surgeon and your anesthesiologist all the things you have taken, eaten, smoked, etc in advance so they do not have any surprises during surgery.
