What is the difference between Vanquish and Vanquish ME?

Question

Is Vanquish ME more advanced and more effective? I am trying to get pricing on getting a Vanquish treatment and found out that the provider I like has only the Vanquish (I guess older model) machine and not the newer Vanquish ME. Are the results of the older and newer machine the same or are they different?

Yes, Vanquish ME is a higher power machine and will give more robust results. I often do a "Fire and Ice" treatment with a combination of Vanquish with Coolsculpting to get the best results.I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

The improved Vanquish ME protocol works better than the original Vanquish protocol. There has been a software update so that the energy is delivered more efficiently and the treatment time is increased from 30 minutes to 45 minutes. Vanquish ME is a great nonsurgical body contouring option.

The older Vanquish did not work as well as the newer Vanquish Me.  The Vanquish Me has more power and different applicators for the body and extremities.  It is often combined with Coolsculpting for even better cosmetic results.  Please consult an expert in non-surgical body contouring for the best cosmeticresults.  Best, Dr. Green

The ME is higher power and will get better results. I like to do in conjunction with the Zimmer Z Wave to get better results. I usually do 6-8 treatments.
