Can you smoke marijuana before Rhinoplasty?

Thank you for your question. It's best to avoid smoking for at least two weeks prior to rhinoplasty. This applies not only to conventional cigarettes, but also to marijuana. Also make sure to avoid smoking marijuana for at least two weeks after surgery as it may interfere with your healing process. Smoking after surgery may restrict the flow of blood to the healing areas, exacerbate swelling, and prolong recovery.  I'd recommend to consult with your plastic surgeon as he or she may have different guidelines for smoking. 
An in-person exam with a board certified plastic surgeon is always the best way to fully assess your needs and address your concerns. Best of luck!

thank you for reaching out. As mentioned before, you will not likely hear that it is OK. I would suggest you stop at least 2 weeks prior to surgery, but the best advise I can give is that you reveal any and all usage to your surgeon as well as your anesthesiologist so they can be aware and take the very best care of you. Best of luck. Dr. Kim
