Smoking after rhinoplasty

One of the negative effects of smoking on general health is the late healing of diseases and wounds. Wounds and diseases that occur in the body for various reasons heal much slower in smokers than in non-smokers. Therefore, it is recommended that people who will undergo surgical intervention definitely stop smoking. Rhinoplasty is also a serious surgical procedure performed by opening incisions in the nose area. Therefore, smoking should be stopped a certain period of time before the surgery date. In addition, since rhinoplasty is an application performed on the nose, which is the most striking part of the face, a healthy and fast healing process is very important. In rhinoplasty, in order for the results of the intervention performed on the nose to be seen more successfully and quickly and for the incisions to heal healthily without leaving any scars, smoking should be stopped for a while not only before the surgery but also after. It is strongly recommended by doctors that smoking, which prevents wound healing, should be stopped for at least 1 month after rhinoplasty. The results of rhinoplasty will be much more successful for people who follow this advice.
