∙ 11y agoLungs and cardiac muscles aren't the only things damaged by the abundant toxins residing in tobacco and cigarette smoke. The integumentary system (skin, hair, and nails) can also be affected by chronic smoking. Firstly, blood vessels constrict as smoke is inhaled, leading to a lack of nutrient delivery to the skin and hair (this can cause an almost grey or orange tint in the skin). Oxygen cannot be carried to the integumentary system efficiently, leading to similar results. Smoking can also artificially speed up the natural aging process of the skin, causing wrinkles. Any way around it, smoking is not just damaging while you' re actively using it. In fact, many of the symptoms that smoking causes are not just dangerous - they're permanent.
