How safe is Botox and filler on a patient who suffered deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism during pregnancy?

Asked By:sarj78249 in New York, New York

Had a DVT in 3rd trimester and PE a few days postpartum. Heme workup couldn’t find any clotting disorders and after 6 months of blood thinners (lovenox) and no longer nursing, I’m looking for some help with fine lines and sagging. Very eager to have Botox and fillers, but a quick google of fillers and safety following PE pulls up articles about PE/VTE. Are fillers safe for someone like me? What about eyelid surgery or facelift? Desperate for some help with my face, but safety is key. Thx
