How much radiation does Vanquish emit to your abdominal organs?

Question

Douglas Wu, MD · Answer

Vanquish uses radiofrequency heat to kill fat cells only. It doesn’t reach down far enough to affect your organs and has no adverse effects on your skin, either. Basically, the heat from Vanquish disrupts the function of the cells, shutting them down. Your body then kicks in to eliminate the dead cells, removing them for good. It’s safe, easy, and comfortable. You probably need three treatments. It takes a few months for your body to clear the dead fat cells and for your results to be visible. Consulting with a board-certified dermatologist will alleviate your fears about Vanquish; it’s a great way to get rid of excess fat.

Hello and thank you for your question. Vanquish targets the subcutaneous fat cells and does not reach deep enough to affect internal organs. I would recommend a consult with an experienced provider to review the treatment and risks/benefits. Have a great day!  Holly, RN

Shalini Gupta, MD · Answer

There should not be any harm to internal organs from Vanquish as the energy is preferentially absorbed by the fat cells and does not penetrate beyond the subcutaneous fat.
