Can I receive facial injections while taking XARELTO? How long do I have to stop before if necessary?

Thank you for your question. You can still have fillers while taking blood thinners. However, there is a greater chance of bruising. Please discuss with your provider and always seek treatment from a board-certified dermatologist. 

Thank you for your question! Being on a blood thinner does not necessarily stop you from getting fillers/botox/smaller surgery.  The main change in risk would be risk of increased bruising that may persist for longer.  Certainly you can speak to your prescribing doctor and find out if you can take Arnica montana a few days ahead of and after your filler to decrease the risk of bruising and help it to resolve faster.  As always, make sure to consult with board-certified plastic surgeons or dermatologists for best recommendations!
