As with any surgery, there are risks involved. Smokers are required to refrain from smoking, before and after the procedure, for a minimum of four to six weeks, to reduce the likelihood of complications. Some possible risks are nerve damage and delayed wound healing. Dr. Cohen will fully present the risks and complications to you during your consultation.
