Can I get CoolSmooth/coolsculpting done even if I am taking Yaz birth control?

May 24, 2017
Asked By:Typs16 in Las Vegas, NV

I've been on Yaz (which says increases blood clots by 75%) for about 2 years now and have had no problem. I'm interested in getting coolsmooth or cool sculpting done but I am afraid of the blood clots. Any advice?
