22 Year Old, Just Had an FUE transplant with PRP. Didn't completely quit chewing tobacco, will it effect my grafts? (photo)

I've been chewing for about alittle less than a year. Now that I've had the surgery I haven't had any nicotine/chewing tobacco and don't plan on having any (its been 3 days so far). I'm really worried though because I didn't completely quit until right after my surgery. The doctor asked me if I smoked and I said no, because I dont. I didn't know about the effects nicotine had on my blood circulation until right after the surgery. Do you think my graphs will be ok? Any
