I am deciding between Vanquish and CoolSculpting. I purchased Vanquish but when I got to Doctor's office she said that Vanquish doesn't actually kill the fat cells, so results are less long term than with CoolSculpting. The CoolSculpting is more expensive (given the number of applications) so I wanted to know if this is true.

Answer: "Fire and Ice" Treatment--Vanquish and Coolsculpting for fat removal Vanquish does destroy fat cells, but it uses heat to do so, whereas Coolsculpting uses controlled cooling. In our office we do a "Fire and Ice" combination of Vanquish and Coolsculpting to get the best results with fat removal. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Vanquish and Coolsculpting kill fat cells Both Vanquish ME and Coolsculpting permanently destroy or kill fat cells for long lasting improvements. Vanquish uses RF energy to destroy fat cells by heating fat cells to a toxic temperature whereas coolsculpting freezes fat cells to a toxic temperature. Devices that maybe just shrink fat cells include ilipo, lipolaser, zerona and strawberry laser. The devices that permanently kill fat cells include Liposuction, Vaser Liposuction, Smartlipo, Coolsculpting, Vanquish, Sculpsure, Exilis Ultra, ThermiRF, and Liposonix.
