    Default BA complications- Smoking=Capsular Contracture?

    I just got my BA finally on wednesday. They look great already, but I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about the complications that can come along at this point? My doctor said something about not smoking because it can cause capsular contracture. Does anyone know anything about that? I've been smoking, but trying to keep it to a minumum - I've only gone thru 3/4 of a pack since I got it done and its been almost a week, but it's driving me nuts!!

    Can I smoke? Or are they going to explode? lol

    Oh, and is it normal for them to feel sore on my chest in between my boobs?

    As far as the smoking and breast implants..my mother in law is 43 and has had her breast implants for a long time now, and she smokes. Not sure how much, but her still look fine to me, I dont see anything wrong or odd with them.

    Smoking depletes the oxygen to your blood,so I would suggest you stop completely until you are fully healed.

    Most of the better surgeons around here (i.e., Beverly Hills) require BA patients to stop smoking at three weeks prior to and three weeks after your implants are in.
