How does it work?
- Vanquish Me uses RF to permanently melt away fat cells. Warm Sculpting heats the fat cells to 112 degrees F, which is required temperature to initiate apoptosis, or fat cell death.
- The overlying skin and muscles below the subcutaneous fat are not injured as they remain at a cooler temperature due to their naturally higher level of moisture.
Does this really make you look thinner without exercise?
- Yes, this is absolutely an effective treatment for most patients.
- This is newer science than Cool Sculpting and it is a safe and effective fat loss treatment.
- Although results may vary, by far the majority of patients notice an obvious thinning of fat in the body area treated.
Are the results permanent?
- When you have your warm lipolysis treatment, the affected fat cells will be eliminated permanently.
- As long as you maintain your weight with your baseline level of diet and exercise, your long-term results will be permanent.
When will I see results?
- You may start to see changes as quickly as three weeks after your treatment but will experience the most dramatic results after two months.
- Your body will still flush out fat cells and continues doing so for up to four to six months after treatment.
What does it feel like?
- As the warm therapy begins you will feel a sensation like a warm heating pad. It should not be excessively warm and if it is uncomfortable you will just need to notify our staff so that we can turn down the energy slightly and make other adjustments as needed.
- The machine works specifically to not deliver heat to the skin but rather to deliver it deeper inside where the fat is located.
- Many people read, work on their laptop, or even take a nap during their treatment!
How long is the treatment?
- A typical treatment usually lasts between 30 minutes to one hour depending upon the energy delivered and other factors.
- Your first treatment will be 30 minutes and depending upon how well treatments are tolerated and your treatment progress your physician may prescribe that subsequent treatments be slightly longer.
Can I return to normal activities after my treatment?
- Yes you can. Usually, patients return to work after the session is over.
What body areas can be treated?
- Upper Abdomen
- Upper Back (Flanks)
- Lower Back (Love Handles)
- Lower Abdomen
- Buttocks
- Outer Thighs
- Inner Thighs
How does this compare to "Cool Sculpt” Cryolipolysis?
- Overall the results are comparable to cool sculpting, however, studies have shown warm sculpting actually removes slightly more fat per course of therapy (25%).
- Because the energy is naturally tapered toward the edges, the results are slightly more uniform and natural appearing.
- Because the treatment board is larger than the cooling handles, the warm treatment area is a little larger.
- Only "Cool" Cryolipolysis can treat the chin.
