Although smoking is not a reason for your surgery not to be performed safely, your operator should be aware of all the facts that could affect the outcome of the surgery.<\/p><p>In some cases, possible problems can be avoided by minor modification of the operation (e.g., the length and location of the surgical incision may be adapted, or it is recommended to take some specific medications). But your operator is more likely to recommend quitting smoking a few weeks before surgery. This vital detail can contribute to the best possible surgical outcome and speed up the healing time. You may, after all, be prompted to reduce smoking or get rid of that habit altogether.<\/p><p>Finally, smoking cessation is one of the most effective steps you can take to slow down the aging process and maintain healthy and beautiful skin! Smoking has been shown to contribute to the formation of wrinkles on the face, especially around the mouth. Smoking cessation will significantly contribute to delaying the formation of new wrinkles.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-23d3833c elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"23d3833c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" id=\"five\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInDown&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h1 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">WHEN EARLY HEALING IS COMPLETE<\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-71d149ab elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"71d149ab\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>After surgery, when the swelling is gone and you feel good, it\u2019s time to find out how to get back into your daily routine.
