💪 Can Bodybuilders on Steroids Get Body Contouring? Here’s the Scoop!
Body contouring is growing in popularity among all kinds of clients, including bodybuilders. But what happens when a bodybuilder is on steroids? Can you still perform body contouring? This is a question I get asked a lot, so I’m breaking it down for you step by step!
The Short Answer? YES, But With Considerations!
You can perform body contouring on clients who use steroids, but there are a few key things you need to think about first. Here's what you should know to keep your treatments safe and effective:
Important Considerations for Bodybuilders on Steroids
1. 💡 Tissue Sensitivity
Steroids can make tissues more fragile, meaning your client might bruise or experience irritation more easily. Adjust your machine settings to suit their sensitivity levels.
2. 💧 Water Retention
Steroids often cause water retention, which can make results less noticeable at first. Set clear expectations with your client about what they’ll see and when.
3. 🔄 Liver & Kidney Load
Body contouring treatments, like fat cavitation or laser lipolysis, rely on the body’s natural detox processes to flush out fat. Steroids can already put strain on these organs, so check that your client is in good health.
4. 📏 Skin Thickness
Bodybuilders tend to have reduced subcutaneous fat and thicker skin, which may impact the effectiveness of some body contouring treatments. It’s essential to assess the area carefully to manage expectations.
5. ❤️ Overall Health Check
Make sure your client has no underlying conditions like high blood pressure, heart issues, or hormonal imbalances that could make treatments unsafe.
6. 📝 Consent is Queen!
Always discuss steroid use during the consultation and list it on their consent form. If in doubt, ask for a doctor’s clearance before proceeding with treatments.
Why This Matters
Bodybuilders are some of the most disciplined clients you’ll work with. They know their bodies better than most, but as professionals, it’s our job to educate them about what body contouring can and can’t do—especially if they’re using steroids.
By addressing these considerations, you’ll not only keep your client safe but also build trust and a stellar reputation as someone who truly knows their stuff!
