A member asked:

What do you suggest if my nose job is 2 weeks away and i was sitting with my friends who smoke, will it effect the results or anesthesia or anything ?

No: If your surgery is two weeks away, any smoke you inhaled will be long gone. Try to stay away from smoke (tobacco or other) in general, but it won't be a problem in terms of anesthesia.

Unlikely: A brief exposure is unlikely to cause any significant problems. It is usually prolonged or chronic use that leads to difficulties with healing
