Will smoking after my BBL cause any complications?

Thank you for your question, after surgery it's best if you wait at least a month o two after the surgery for you to resume smoking, since smoking can lead to complications such as fat necrosis, lack of oxygen through fat cells, and loosing fat cells as well.

Please tell your surgeon that you've smoked if you suffer from a complication, such as infection or delayed wound recovery.

Hello dear!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
Smoking before or after your surgery can increase your risk of developing complications, including infection and wound healing problems. I recommend my patients that it is ideal to stop at least 6 weeks before surgery and then 6 weeks more after surgery.
If you have any concerns, please follow up close with your plastic surgeon.
Good luck :)

Smoking interferes with healing after surgery and reduces the supply of oxygenated blood to the fat cells. Consult your surgeon regarding post op instructions since each surgeon has a slightly different protocol.

Although we would like all of our patients to refrain from smoking for a month or so before surgery and a month or so after, there are some procedures where it really is critical.  These include facelifts, tummy tucks, and fat injections.  The survival of that fat is very precarious in the first few weeks after surgery, requiring the body's blood supply to nourish the delicate fat cells.  Even smoking one cigarette (or breathing second hand smoke) can cause a measurable decrease in capillary bloodflow.  Stop smoking immediately, hopefully you'll get lucky with little or no damage done.
