CoolSculpting: will the results be negatively effected by testosterone use? Can I get it while on an AAS Cycle?

Question

Would anabolic test use/test replacement effect coolsculpting in a negative way or enhance it? I am a competitive Bodybuilder and am concerned that the AAS will negatively effect COOLSCULPTING results.

I'm not aware of any link between the two.  Having said that, there are downsides to anabolic steroids with regards to fat gain and skin stretch.

Hello stilllifting,Thank you for this interesting question. CoolSculpting is very effective for reducing stubborn pockets of fat that diet and exercise just can't seem to eliminate. It accomplishes this by freezing fat cells which causes the fat inside to crystallize thus permanently damaging (killing) the fat cell which your body eliminates through "natural processes". Testosterone/Anabolic "cycles" work through very different physiologic processes on the various target tissues of interest. Having successfully completed CoolSculpting University and working at a "Center of CoolSculpting Excellence" I am not aware of any conflict in the scenario you have described.
