Thank you for your question. Vanquish doesn't result in weight loss, but rather destroys fat cells through radio frequency technology. It does offer some skin tightening, but it will not help with loose skin after weight loss. A tummy tuck is the only procedure that will remove excessive loose skin. The fat cells destroyed during Vanquish procedure are eliminated naturally by the body slowly over several months, so loose skin from the procedure alone would not be a problem. I hope this helps.
Vanquish uses controlled radio frequency (RF) waves to target fat cells,destroying them without harming the muscle or skin. Over a period of time, thecells are filtered through the lymphatic system, metabolized in the liver, andexcreted through urine. Vanquish can destroy up to 60% of the fat cells in anygiven area and can improve skin laxity and overall body contour. It isrelatively painless and requires no downtime. Individuals can resume theirdaily routine immediately following treatment.#skintightening #radiofrequency #vanquish

Vanquish uses RF, which is not only used for destroying fat, but also tightening skin. It's been my experience that there is no loose skin. In fact, the skin feels firmer and thicker. I use the Z Wave in conjuction with my treatments, and this also helps skin tightening.
Painful lumps after Vanquish has been known to happen, especially if you have a lot of fat. Usually it is from fat necrosis which happens when the fat starts to die off. You should massage deeply and frequently, this often breaks up the lumps, which ultimately will go away.

Here in our office we have found the best outcome to be 1 hour as opposed to the 30 minute treatment time and once a week for 6 weeks. #vanquish #howmanytreatments #fatreduction
