Hi-Love, for what I read the nicotine slow the healing process and the scaring, Dr recommends to stop at list 6 weeks before surgery, because Nicotine increases the risk for infection, skin necrosis, and wound healing, your blood vessel need clean oxygen, hope this little info help.

Double up intake of vitamin C, to help flush the nicotine out of your body, try emergen C

Thank you but I'm taking years plus multi vitamins and I stop smoking like a week ago...but I'm not a cigarette smoker if you know what I mean lol

Lmao, girl you are too much, :-) think you will be fine, just a lot of vitamin C, kerp ud update please. God bless

What day are you scheduled for surgery? Do you have enough time to stop for the recommended 6 weeks? In other words, are you just asking so you know or are you already a week away from surgery? If not, I wouldn't risk it. If you just smoked that one time, but haven't for the rest of the six weeks, it may not be a big deal. Good luck.

Don't start smoking it will make your blood thin and you'll be more likely to bleed all over the place in the drains are friends section of the blood is in your stomach if so come out and you'll be one for after work and they bleed a lot

The only problem with smoking is the nicotine, if you are smoking something else
