Answer: Smoking and Rhinoplasty Hello,Thank you for your question. As smoking seriously damages the healing process I advise my patients quit smoking 6 months before the surgery and never smoke again after the surgery. This period is needed for the body to get rid of the harmful components of the nicotine. To find out more please click on the attached link. Best regards

Answer: Nicotine and vaping Nicotine use should be stopped at least six weeks before surgery. Postoperatively, resuming will affect wound healing and is undesirable as well. This is an excellent opportunity to stop.
