Answer: How long is the safest length to quit smoking? Plastic surgeons differ on the response to this question. Nicotine constricts blood vessels and prevents delivery of oxygen to the wound that requires good blood flow to heal. In my practice, I advise my patients not to smoke for at least a week prior to and 6 weeks after breast augmentation. If you are smoking one half pack per day or more, you should stop smoking for a month prior to breast augmentation.

Answer: Smoking cessation Thanks for your inquiry, for a breast augmentation with lift , three weeks would be a good minimum, but ask your surgeon, good luck.
