Does smoking have an effect on a Septoplasty / Nasal reconstruction?

Ghamishko
It's been over a month since my surgery and I started smoking cigarettes here and there once and a while. I was really worried if it would be effect by the healing or even the tissue repairing or recovery? Obviously it is not recommended to smoke for ANYTHING but will this do any major damage to my recovery process? thoughts? Thanks!
