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: Does Vanquish destroy fat cells? Thank you for your question. It is not true that Vanquish only diminishes the size of fat cells while CoolSculpting kills them. We have both devices in our office. We use Vanquish which uses the heat of radio frequency to destroy fat cells in a generalized way, followed by CoolSculpting to spot treat areas such as the abdomen by freezing the fat. Once the fat cells are destroyed, they are gone for good. This "Fire & Ice" treatment approach offers the best results we've seen thus far in non-surgical fat reduction area. I hope this helps.

Answer: Is It True That Vanquish Only Diminishes Fat Cell Size? Vanquish Kills Fat Cells With RF Energy Vanquish kills fat cells, just as CoolSculpting does. The difference is that Vanquish uses heat in the form of radiofrequency (RF) energy to disrupt and destroy the cells, while CoolSculpting uses cooling. Both methods are extremely effective at permanently eliminating stubborn pockets of fat over a series of treatments. You may also want to consider ThermiTight. Please consult a board-certified dermatologist who can determine if you are a candidate for contouring your body with these new methods.

Answer: Vanquish Thank you for your question, I am sorry that you have been informed that Vanquish did not kill the fat cells. It works by heating up the cells to a therapeutic level so they die (apoptosis). Hope this helps

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.
