Has anyone had Velashape or Velasmooth?  I am getting it done next week and am worried about my high risk of blood clots...I have Factor Five Lieden which makes me more likely to get a clot...but I have never had one.  The salon manager said as long as I do not currently have a clot it would be fine to get Velashape but Mesotherapy can't be done even if you are at high risk for clots.  It seems like it is about as invasive as Mesotherapy so I am concerned.  Has anyone been told they can't do Velashape because of a risk factor of clots?  Thanks so much for any advice!
