Can you get Thermiva if you have a blood clot history and are on blood thinners currently?
Answer: Thermiva and blood thinners Thanks for asking your question. Blood thinners do not automatically bar you from getting Thermiva. Thermiva is non-surgical and doesn't break the skin. That being said, I would recommend seeing your physician and giving him your complete medical history so that you and he together and come up with the best plan for you. Good luck.

Answer: ThermiVa with Blood Thinners/History of Blood Clots Thank you for asking such an important question. There is no contraindication for having ThermiVa Treatments either with a history of blood clots or while currently taking blood thinners. ThermiVa treatments do not increase your risk of clotting and the treatment does not break the skin, so blood thinners are not a problem.
