Does CoolSculpting raise cortisol levels?

Question

I have PCOS and high estrogen. I have to avoid workouts like HIIT due to increase in cortisol. Will CoolSculpting raise cortisol levels?

Anil R. Shah, MD · Answer

CoolSculpt has not shown in their standardized research trials to raise Cortisol levels in their patients. However, with PCOS and high estrogen, I would prefer that you consult with your primary care physician or a physician that knows your PCOS history very well. They will be able to best assess your candidacy for CoolSculpting. Best, Dr. Anil Shah

Coolsculpting will not raise cortisol levels because it does not affect the adrenal glands. It is always important to have a consultation with a Coolsculpting professional, but you will be find with this non invasive treatment. Resisted exercise would be safe for for you along with a coolsculpting procedure. I always tell my patients to eat healthy and exercise along with coolsculpting to get your maximum results. It will take a 20%-25% reduction, but remember it will not tighten your skin.
