I smoked a pack of 10 cigarettes 6 days post FUE hair transplant. This was a one off.

Asked By:gazap in Uk

Will this one time be detrimental? So,i quit 2 weeks prior to surgery and didnt smoke until today. The circumstances were exceptional so i dont need a lecture about the horrors of smoking etc i just need to know if smoking ten (and that will be it by the way as it made me sick) will have an adverse effect on my results? I wont be smoking again so will this one-off make much of a difference? Thank you.
