How about NOW??: How about stopping the weed now, while you're thinking about it? It makes sense to be as careful with what you put in your chest, as you are with what you put on your chest (the breast implants.) be well.

Yesterday: You will be receiving several different medications / anesthetic agents that can have reactions with the marijuana. Stop smoking now and let your surgeon and our anesthesiologist know about your usage.

Implants and smoking: Always best to side on the side of safety. But also best to ask your chosen surgeon if smoking 'anything' will effect your outcome. It is a ratio of the risk vs benefit.
