What is VANQUISH ME?
Vanquish ME is an FDA-approved procedure for eliminating unwanted fat. It is non-invasive, does not touch the skin, does not cause pain, and involves no downtime. Vanquish ME uses radio-frequency to warm the fat layer of the abdomen or thighs, raising the temperature of the fat cells to a degree that makes the fat cells die off (undergo apoptosis).
CoolSculpting is also non-invasive method of fat removal, but instead of heating fat like Vanquish ME, CoolSculpting freezes fat. Coolsculpting can be associated with significant discomfort during and following treatment. Additionally, Coolsculpting can cause uneven “scalloped” results due to its small spot size. By contrast, Vanquish ME is painless and has the largest spot size of any device, covering the abdomen from flank to flank, giving even results.
Vanquish ME is the only contactless body shaping device on the market. Its large treated area makes the therapy typically more affordable, with more fat removed compared to other procedures. Its body shaping effects tend to be more uniform across the entire body part. The Vanquish ME technology is based on the elevation of fat temperature. As such, there is no risk of paradoxical adipose hyperplasia (worsening of fat) – a phenomenon related to fat freezing.

HOW DOES VANQUISH ME WORK?
VANQUISH ME Technology
Vanquish ME uses radiofrequency energy in an adjustable panel that hovers less than an inch over the skin. The radiofrequency energy easily passes through the skin to heat the fat layers, while the energy is blocked from passing through muscle below. The energy causes heating of fat cells leading to cell death termed “apoptosis.” The elimination of fat cells leads to a decreased thickness of the fat layer.
Radiofrequency is a special form of electricity. Radiofrequency is used extensively in dermatology and cosmetic surgery to target certain layers of the skin to help with skin tightening, collagen regeneration, and deep tissue heating and fat elimination.
