Regular Member bigwilly1234 Posted August 6, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted August 6, 2015 I just had a fut strip procedure today. I smoke medical marijuana due to back pain. Just want to know if smoking marijuana will cause the grafts to fall out. Or if it'll cause the strip scar on the back to be bigger. I paid a lot of money for the hair transplant. So the last thing I want to do is mess it up. But I feel crazy when I don't smoke weed cause I'm so used to smoking weed. Just wondering if anybody out there had any answers for me. I'm just wondering if anybody out there has had a strip procedure and still smoke the weed and you still got great results. Or maybe you got bad results. Whatever info would be helpful to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Shera Posted August 6, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 6, 2015 Just be careful you don't drop your weed on the carpet, from distant memory carpets have a habit of consuming your weed and when you are on all fours desperately searching for it, be careful not to bang your head on the table, you may knock some grafts out. __________________________________________________ Dr Bhatti FUE Oct 2014 3305 grafts http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/178931-my-fue-dr-tejinder-bhatti-oct-2014-a.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member bigwilly1234 Posted August 7, 2015 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 7, 2015 I'm hearing from other people online. Smoking marijuana can cause problems with the healing process on the scar just because of the carbon monoxide. Is this something to worry about. And what if I just took the little hits here and. Just worrying if it's going to make the scar on the back of my head bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Spidey Posted August 7, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 7, 2015 why do you not consume the marijuana a different way.. ie eating it.. get the THC some other way?

Senior Member Spanker Posted August 7, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 7, 2015 Shouldn't be an issue, but if you feel crazy when you don't smoke weed, you probably shouldn't smoke weed. I'm not judging you, I just think you should consider a break if it's really that deep.
