Cigarettes and Hair Transplantation
Done hair transplant 20 days ago. i have started smoking again but my doc advised against it. will smoking stop the growth of newly implanted grafts?
Smoking is bad for your health in general and it contributes to poor wound healing and poor circulation. If you are saying that you recently had a hair transplant and are now smoking, it might impact growth as the circulation does go down in the scalp with smoking. It is impossible to state that smoking will stop the growth of your implanted grafts, but why risk it? I can say that of those people who may have had less than targeted end-results, most were smokers. Maybe it is a good time to stop smoking.
I have a question involving tranquilisers and hair transplantation. I take up to four to five benzo diazempam tablets per day and have obviously been trying to curb this amount, I was just writing to find out about the impact on hair transplantation surgery, is it the same as smoking?
