Answer: Smoking cigarettes after Liposuction? Smoking affects your healing process. I usually advise my patients who smoke to quite at least two weeks prior to the surgery and not smoking afterwards. Watch my video here for more info

Answer: Smoking after liposuction The nicotine in cigarettes interferes with healing. It constricts blood vessels, which restricts the delivery of nutrients to the healing tissues. The result can be slow or poor wound healing and infections. It is best to check with your surgeon before resuming smoking as he/she knows the extent and details regarding your surgery.
