Am told will be on blood thinners (Elaquist) for a few more months. Since I can't shave, thought of laser hair removal, on both legs. How does laser hair removal work in relation to blood clots & thinners. Is this a bad idea to do? Will ask hematologist. But, what other type of Drs. have deep knowledge of both laser procedures & blood clots and can give solid advice.
