Answer: Hair Transplant Dear GiggzyThanks for the question. Smoking reduces the blood circulation and this can effect the hair grow of the new hair. We know that stopping smoking is not easy for the patients and this is why we recommend to consume not more than 5 cigarettes per day if the patient can not stop. I wish you all the best.

Answer: Smoking Generally I advise my patients to wait two weeks before smoking, and a month before doing so daily. There's no studies that explicitly indicate it affects hair transplants but conventional wisdom would suggest that it does. Ultimately it depends on whether you're willing to take the risk or not after discussing it with your doctor.

Answer: Smoking after surgery Smoking affects the amount of proper blood flow to the transplanted grafts. Therefore, we highly recommend to our patients that they avoid smoking or limit smoking prior to the surgery and particularly one week after the procedure. Thus, it is of great importance to avoid smoking in order to ensure adequate oxygen and nutrient for the transplanted grafts in order to obtain the most successful outcome.
