Regular Member pkgr33n Posted December 28, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted December 28, 2022 Hi, I'll be recieving surgery shortly after new years, and as it has been advised I'm not allowed alochol for 7 days leading up the the procedure (I have done this, and will continue to do so). I am therefore considering cocaine (56 hours pre surgery), would anyone know the consequences of this on the anasthesia/bleeding etc? I can't seem to find much information. Another alternative to cocaine is Ecstasy. I believe the majority of drugs would wash out of the system within 2 days, but really would like to know any further info. Thanks :) 1 3 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted December 28, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 28, 2022 How about abstaining for one new year. To be honest, I don’t know if there will be any issues. But I know both of these drugs could exhaust you, not a good idea so close to your procedure. 2 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Senior Member HappyMan2021 Posted December 28, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted December 28, 2022 (edited) @pkgr33n the cocaine could realistically be cut with fentanyl and you could die. It could be cut with any # of things that could interfere with surgery. Ditto with the MDMA. Even though both of these drugs may be out of your system by surgery time, the mental hangover could still be there. The last thing you want is to have surgery while you are dealing with an MDMA hangover, or to die from a fentanyl overdose - then you can't enjoy your new hair at all. Can't you just smoke weed like a normal person? Edited December 28, 2022 by HappyMan2021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member HappyMan2021 Posted December 28, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted December 28, 2022 (edited) who is your surgeon? someone who is serious about hair transplants and understands the gravity of the situation if things go wrong, would not be asking a question like this. Also, consider you get high on coke or MDMA and your inhibitions are lowered to the point that you decide to drink alcohol anyway 🤣 Honestly it sounds pretty miserable to be all stimmed out on coke and not be able to drink to take the edge off. FWIW I think you are fine drinking 56 hours before surgery, just dont go crazy and dont do hard drugs... Or choose weed. That is the safest option.

Thanks Just be careful mate ..coz if the Coke is any good there’s a strong chance you won’t make the surgery appointment even 56 hours later …rarely ends with just the odd line ….take good care of yourself 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member mister_25 Posted December 29, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted December 29, 2022 I would flat out avoid any vices. I didn’t have anything with caffeine or sugar for like 5 days post op and no one asked me too. If your worried about coke or alcohol doing something to your transplant the best thing to do is just not to have them. 1 12+ Months Finasteride + Minoxidil 3872 FUE w/ Dr Hasson | November 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Pbaird98 Posted December 29, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted December 29, 2022 Normally I would say speak to the Dr who will be doing the procedure, however in this case I don’t think that’s a good idea! I wouldn’t be risking it personally, you don’t want any extra risks, or even the possibility of cancellation.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing with a HT. OP just take things cautiously, it’s a surgical procedure. You can always drink with the boys another time.

The doctor could think op is a massive liability. The doctor might think OP is a cokehead and will be doing lines during breaks in the surgery 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Westview Posted December 29, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted December 29, 2022 Dont.do.it You will want to have a clear mind for the surgery. You can still have fatigue and lingering ill feelings 2 days after taking MDMA or coke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Westview Posted December 29, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted December 29, 2022 Dont drink alcohol either. You can have so much excessive bleeding that the doctor might decide to halt the surgery. And chances are he wont reimburse you either (since you didnt follow pre-surgery directions) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member WhereIsMyMind Posted December 29, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted December 29, 2022 Hahaha, this thread is insane. Well, HT is a one-in-a-lifetime proccedure, seems almost impossible to justify a short-term effect drug affecting a lifetime decision...? Maybe its just me tho. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get people want these thrills/kicks/rides whatever, but come on OP you can literally do that sh*t anytime you want, leading up to a once (or few) in a lifetime important procedure, hell no.

Senior Member HairEnthusiast101 Posted December 29, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted December 29, 2022 I’m not going to ever tell anyone how to live their life but if you are getting an HT then I assume your hair has caused a massive mental stain on you. This is literally one of the most important procedures/fixes you could ever make. And you can’t reverse any negative that happens from it. I don’t know how to answer your question other than one party is far less important than the next 40 years of your life with your new hair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Fue3361 Posted December 29, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted December 29, 2022 The thought process baffles me. You're willing to risk a lifelong result for something very important to you, just to have a little more fun for one day?

Regular Member bear56 Posted December 29, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted December 29, 2022 cocaine by itself can cause hair loss due to stress, nutritional deficiency. also since your ticker will be working overtime it can affect your heart. consider that you will receive anesthesia. if you are a repeat user you might want to address that problem first before even thinking about a hair transplant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
