Asked By:saturday99

I heard that smoking accelerate the hairs's cycle and the MPB hairloss,but also the hairs's cycle in the donor area (safe zone). If I stop smoking before and after my hair transplant, does the transplanted grafts from the donor aera will stay many years? Or will they fall very fast because of the smoke? Really anxious about it, thanks in advance!
