No long term results

The results are not long term with this product. I would have been better off investing my two rounds of laser treatments (A round in California and a round in ATL) and gotten smart lipo.

The office was great. I would like more detailed information on how the product works and when to expect results. I'd like to see a video of how the laser targets the fat, and what happens to the fat. I would CERTAINLY go back and keep trying if I had some proof that the treatment works. That being said, it would be good to have a model/representative who has before and after photos who can speak for the effectiveness of the product. Everyone wants to know if their investment will be worth the results. If the office had a live "go to" model to represent the real results, that would be very helpful. All this being said, I am still game for trying more Vaquish treatments.

I give it a thumbs up-1 year later

readyforsuccess
I give my 3 Vanquish treatments a thumbs up after almost 1 year.
I believe my "pooch" has been less trouble this year....and I am going to go ahead
and give Vanquish some credit. Don't get me wrong, the fat is not gone, but the volume feels less burdensome.
I'd love to try another 3 pack of Vanquish treatments, especially with the new time settings.

Did you have 45 or 30minute sessions? I had 4 sessions 45 minutes each for 4 weeks in a row- no break. This is supposed to be the protocol dictated by the company. I am not doing anymore until I take pictures at the DR office in Jan, compare the pics, and determine then whether it has been worthwhile. I am looking for better fitting pants- that is the result I am aiming for. Do your clothes fit better? what does it matter if the pictures seem to show results. Your clothes aren't going to lie!

Think of it as Body Contouring not as lipo

readyforsuccess
i am becoming more happy with the results. If what I have now lasts, i am thinking it will be worth it. Think of this treatment as body contouring rather than laser liposuction. I can't wait for vanquish to put up MORE INFORMATION about how this works from a "how does the laser kill the fat and how does the fat leave the body" standpoint.

Like I've been saying, I think I will get even better results with 6 treatments. The real test in effectiveness will be as the next 6-12 months pass.
When I did Vaser Shape (not Vanquish), my results lasted for about a year.

Right now I am happy with the contours of my waist and feel that Vanquish has made a subtle impact. Ps. I am a slender woman with curves. My only real fat is and has ALWAYS been in the pooch of my stomach and around my waist.

It seems like it does not work. Over that period of time a lot of things could contribute to a small loss. There seems to be as many people saying it does nothing, and of course doctors who sell the procedure seem to think it works. Is there any science?

The protocol calls for 4 treatments and the time has actually been increased from 30 minutes per session to 45 minutes per session. I would encourage you to have 3 more treatments at 45 minutes.

I'm just finishing my 5th treatment-any benefit from more tx's? Is it safe? Can I do 5 more tx's for another two inch loss?
