How Does it Work?

 

This amazing device uses radiofrequency energy in an adjustable panel that hovers over the targeted area of unwanted fat. Radiofrequency energy from the device is specially tuned to target fat cells. The energy passes easily through the skin but has a harder time getting through the fat. The energy collection in the fat causes heating of adipocytes (fat cells), leading to heat damage that causes a natural, controlled form of cell death termed “apoptosis.” The elimination of fat cells leads to a decreased thickness of the fat layer in the area of VanquishME treatment.

 

Who is a Good Candidate for VanquishME?

 

Adults in good shape with areas of unwanted fat that do not want to undergo surgery are ideal candidates. Good candidates are already physically active and adhere to a healthy diet.

What Areas of the Body Can be Treated?

 

With the largest treatment area on the market the treatment panel fits over the abdomen and flanks to reduce the size of the tummy and love handles (flanks). The FLEX applicator allows treatment of smaller targeted zones of fat. The following areas of body may be used for noninvasive fat reduction:

 

• Abdomen

• Flanks

• Posterior waistline (“muffin top”)

• Bra line

• Back

• Inner and outer thighs

• Upper arms

​

What does VanquishME feel like?

​

There is a mild, gentle warming sensation during treatment that is similar to having a heating pad placed in the area of treatment. Vanquish is not painful, and the patient’s comfort level is monitored during Vanquish treatment.

Is the fat loss from VanquishME permanent? 

Yes, as VanquishME causes apoptosis (cell death) of fat cells, affected cells are permanently eliminated. So long as weight and diet are maintained, the results following Vanquish are likely to be permanent.

Package Pricing is based on the area of treatment. Discounts are provided when multiple treatment areas are treated and for occasional follow-up maintenance treatments if needed.

How does a Emtone treatment Feel? Does Emtone hurt?

​

Emtone is a well-tolerated procedure that requires no anesthesia. Treatment to a single area takes approximately 5-15 minutes. Emtone treatment is well tolerated and feels like a hot stone massage. During treatment, the Emtone handpiece glides over the skin with the help of a conductive and moisturizing lotion. Continual, circular movement of the Emtone handpiece and internal safety mechanisms ensures that no area of skin becomes hot or uncomfortable.

​

Who is a good candidate for Emtone?

​

Emtone improves skin laxity, which typically develops in patients in their 30s-50s. Patients with relatively good skin elasticity or “spring back” respond more readily to treatment. Younger patients may have more dramatic responses to Emtone treatment. Patients with poor skin texture may have more modest results or require more frequent treatments. Anyone seeking skin tightening or mild body contouring of stubborn areas of fat without surgery may benefit from Emtone.

​

What areas of the body can be treated with Emtone?

​

Both the lower and upper body can benefit from Emtone treatment. Cellulite and skin laxity of the buttocks, thighs, and knees benefit from bulk heating and resulting new collagen growth and skin tightening. Mommy makeovers of the abdomen may be appropriate with Emtone, especially in women with relatively little abdominal fat and skin laxity as a major issue. Skin laxity of the upper arms are also another area that may be targeted by simultaneous radiofrequency and targeted pressure energies from Emtone.
