Answer: Smoking is not advisable It is never advised to smoke for your general health and definitely not before and after any given procedure. Smoking causes blood vessels to constrict and can reduce blood supply to the follicular unit grafts.At 1 month post op do not look for any regrowth though. This usually occurs the earliest at 3 months post op with most of the regrowth anywhere from 7 - 10 months post op.I'd recommend to stop smoking if you can.I hope this answers your question.

Answer: Smoking and Hair Smoking causes damage to the connective tissue in your skin as part of the oxidative process of ash from the smoke. As we all know oxidative stress on living cells which includes newly transplanted follicles leads to cell death. Best to avoid smoking. It also is bad for sexual function. So now there are at least 2 reasons to stop smoking.
