Can you smoke before or after a hair transplant? If you want the best results, you need to watch this. 👇
At Clinicana, our top priority is ensuring your newly implanted grafts thrive. But did you know that smoking is one of the biggest threats to a successful hair restoration?
In our latest video, we break down exactly how ci******es impact your procedure and why timing is everything when it comes to your recovery. Ni****ne constricts your blood vessels, drastically reducing the essential oxygen and nutrients your scalp needs to heal and grow new hair.
Here is what you need to know to protect your investment:
🛑 BEFORE THE SURGERY:
We strongly advise all patients to stop smoking at least 1 to 2 weeks prior to their hair transplant. Quitting early ensures your blood circulation is optimal, making the procedure safer and setting the stage for better healing.
🛑 AFTER THE SURGERY:
The post-op recovery phase is critical! Smoking during the first two weeks after your procedure can severely lower graft survival rates, increase the risk of scalp infections, and lead to noticeable scarring.
Your hair transplant is a life-changing step—don’t let smoking compromise your results! 💯
Watch the full video to understand the science behind graft survival and learn how to give your new hair the best possible environment to grow strong and healthy.
