Over half of all New Year’s resolutions involve promises to lose weight. Be that for health, fitness or aesthetic reasons, losing weight is never easy. And knowing this, it’s easy to understand why over half of all resolutions fail.
If you, too, have made weight loss your goal for 2023, you may need a bit of help to stay motivated, push past plateaus and meet your goals. Come visit us at Lucienne Salon & Medical Spa to give Vanquish ME™ a try.
What Exactly Is Vanquish ME™?
Vanquish ME™ is a nonsurgical alternative to liposuction developed by BTL Industries. The Vanquish ME™ device uses Selective RF™ (radiofrequency) technology to permanently remove fat from the belly, flanks, hips, thighs, back and other areas.
During a Vanquish ME™ treatment, patients lay down on a treatment table while the device’s contactless applicator hovers over the treatment area for about 45 minutes. The Vanquish ME™ device selectively delivers radiofrequency energy to fat tissue with the help of Energy Flow Control™ (EFC™). This ensures that only fat is treated with radiofrequency energy while the surrounding muscle, skin, vessels and other tissues remain unaffected.
Radiofrequency energy delivered with Vanquish ME™ carefully heats the targeted fat to 114.8°F (46°C) while surrounding tissues reach a safe 107.6 °F (42°C). This slight rise in temperature causes fat cells to die. Over several weeks to months, the body’s immune system removes the treated cells. The final results reveal themselves six weeks after the final treatment.
The fat removed with Vanquish ME™ is gone for good. The treatment leads to a dramatic reduction in waist circumference — up to four inches! Plus: the treatment is comfortable, requires no downtime, and unlike another popular fat reduction treatment, has no risk of paradoxical adipose hyperplasia.
How Vanquish ME™ Is Different From Other Treatments
With the growing popularity of noninvasive cosmetic treatments, there has been a boom in treatments that promise to remove unwanted fat. Many of these treatments use energy, like ultrasound, light (laser) and radiofrequency, to destroy fat cells for good. Others achieve fat cell death with cold temperatures. But Vanquish ME™ stands out amongst the competition for several reasons:
1. It is contactless
The device’s applicators do not come into contact with the skin, unlike most other slimming treatments that require the applicators to be pressed directly against the skin. This makes the procedure very comfortable and suitable for a wide range of shapes and sizes. As the device hovers over the treatment area, you can lay back and relax or scroll your social media feeds and enjoy other forms of entertainment.
2. It can treat more at once
The contactless applicator enables the treatment of a wider surface area than any other slimming device. This means Vanquish ME™ can destroy more fat in less time. This unique feature also helps create even results and prevents texture irregularities, which can and do happen with other treatments of this kind.
3. There is no BMI limit
While other slimming treatments have a BMI threshold, there is no weight limit to get this treatment. That means nearly anyone can enjoy the benefits of Vanquish ME™, no matter their size. Patients who want to remove small pouches of fat will see a smaller reduction in circumference, while those with more weight can expect up to a 4-inch reduction or about two dress sizes.
Using Vanquish ME™ to Reach Your Weight Loss Goals
First, a disclaimer: Vanquish ME™ is not a weight loss solution. While this treatment can permanently remove fat from different areas of your body, it does not provide the same benefits as weight loss. Weight loss through diet, exercise and bariatric surgery leads to fat loss throughout the entire body, including visceral fat lining the organs. Plus, weight loss confers countless health benefits.
Vanquish ME™, on the other hand, is more of a body-shaping treatment. It removes localized subcutaneous (under the skin) fat for aesthetic reasons. Now, you may be wondering, why use it for your weight loss resolution? Because it can serve as a catalyst for true change.
Many people struggle to find the motivation to stick to healthy eating, regular exercising and other habits that promote weight loss. Seeing results with Vanquish ME™ can help you feel more excited and empowered to reach your goals and lead to improved body image and self-esteem — all of which are strong motivators to take better care of your health.
In addition to these benefits, removing excess fat can induce positive metabolic changes that lead to easier weight loss. One study from 2015 examined how liposuction affected weight, hormone and hunger levels a year after treatment and found that the effects were positive in all respects. A different study found that a tummy tuck led to similar outcomes.
Besides being stored energy, body fat also functions like an endocrine organ. It produces a number of hormones that regulate metabolism, notably leptin.
Other Ways Vanquish ME™ Can Help You This Year
Another way Vanquish ME™ can help you with your weight loss resolution is by fine-tuning your weight loss results. If you have reached a weight-loss plateau, or you have stubborn pockets of fat that are seemingly resisting your weight-loss efforts, this treatment will do the remaining work for you.
In fact, Vanquish ME™ is ideal for those who are near their ideal body weight but need a bit of sculpting in difficult areas such as the flanks, lower belly or thighs. If you’ve always struggled with excess fat in these areas, Vanquish ME™ can solve this problem for good.
