Brief Answer: I don't see any contraindications... Detailed Answer: Hi, Lipoglaze is a type of cryolipolysis. Though this form of liposuction has been approved by FDA, there are very limited data available on safety. However based on the data available, it is relatively very safe procedure. As I understand you had an hemorrhagic stroke (as you are not on antiplatelet drugs - aspirin/clopidogrel). Therefore I don't see any contraindications to this procedure. You can confidently discuss about your intentions with the treating physician and I am sure you will receive his / her nod. Hope this suffices. Let me know if you need clarifications. Regards
