Will second hand smoke from my neighbors be enough for my surgeon to cancel my 360 lipo and BBL?

Smoking reduces circulation to the skin and impedes healing.  It is best to avoid smoking, including second hand smoke, and cigarette replacements, such as nicotine patches or gum, in the perioperative period.  Pre and post-op protocols will vary with the plastic surgeon.  You should follow your PS's restriction of no smoking 44 days pre op.  My pre-op preference is that patients should ideally stop smoking for 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after their BBLs, and must NOT smoke for a minimum or 24 hours before and 24 hours after surgery.

Hi and welcome to our forum! Nicotine is a blood vessel constrictor and may interfere with the healing process. Your physician wishes to maximize the result and reduce your risk of complications. It is doubtful that your nicotine test will be positive from a smoking neighbor's apartment....and marijuana does not contain nicotine. Each plastic surgeon follows their own protocol for preoperative testing which develops individually as the result of years of experience. Best wishes...

Dear Aznbootybeauty,every plastic surgeon has his own preoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon. Based on your description, it is unlikely that this will cause issues.Daniel Barrett, MD
