Would CoolSculpting work for me? Should I still consider a BBL? (photos)

ladiferente
Hello, I am 5' 8", 185 pounds, BMI 28.5, 33 years old. I was a good candidate for a BBL until my medical history came across. I had a mini stroke 3 hears ago, due to overdose of birth control; Now my doctor won't do the BBL on me, even though I am clear from the stroke issue, I got everything checked including my heart inside and out. I am not taking any medication, I don't have any medical problems, I don't smoke. Should I still consider a BBL? Or would Coolsculpting work for me?
