Hello, my name is Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi. I understand your concern.
Nicotine is a vasoconstrictor that reduces nutritional blood flow to the skin, resulting in tissue ischemia and impaired healing of injured tissue.
Some yes I suggest you to stop smoking until the wound is completely healed.
Hope my answer was helpful, if you have any other questions I'll be glad to help, thanks!
