Can I have CoolSculpting on the back of my arms if I am taking anabolic steroids?

February 18, 2022
Asked By:Powerful974816

Can I have CoolSculpting procedure on the backs of my arms if I am taking anabolic steroids? I have been taking a low dose of Anavar for 2 weeks (10mg per day) and am due to have the fat freezing done in a week and a half. Will there be any adverse effects if I continue taking the anavar? Thank you
