Does Vanquish fat removal really work? Portland physician weighs in

Posted By: | Published On: | Vanquish
Does Vanquish Fat Removal Really Work in Portland OR Area

With more non-invasive options for fat reduction available than ever before, it can be difficult to sift through your choices and determine which ones will really work for you. Dr. Adam Maddox at Thrive Aesthetic & Anti-Aging Center in Portland, Oregon, takes the guesswork out of the equation and helps you clearly understand which fat removal options are right for your specific needs and desired end results. With our exclusive Vanquish ME Plus and Vanquish Flex ME Plus protocols, you can achieve your body shape goals quickly and effectively.

Does Vanquish fat removal really work?

In short, yes! Vanquish is an effective, pain-free method for getting rid of unwanted bulges in areas such as the abdomen and flanks, and the Vanquish Flex applicator can be used to achieve equally amazing results on the legs and thighs. Individual results vary, but clinical studies have shown that patients lose an average of two inches of fat from the abdomen and don’t even have to wait long to see those results – they are visible as quickly as 2 weeks after their fourth Vanquish treatment.

How the Vanquish system can benefit you

Vanquish is a novel technology that delivers radiofrequency energy deep beneath the skin to heat fat cells and destroy them, all without ever touching your skin or harming the surrounding tissues. While other treatment options like CoolSculpting use uncomfortable suction and require long treatment times, the Vanquish system is contact-free and delivers predictable results, all in just about 30 to 45 minutes per session. Additionally, Vanquish:

  • Is FDA-approved
  • Requires no downtime
  • Has a low risk of side effects
  • Creates noticeable changes within just a few weeks, with continued improvements over the next several months
  • Delivers long-lasting results, as the dead fat cells do not return after they are flushed away through your body’s elimination pathways

miraDry® TREATMENT FOR EXCESSIVE SWEATING
Video Transcript

You shave it. You wax it, you laser it. Heck, you might even dye it pink. Talking about armpit hair. Now some people are saying you can microwave it away once and for all. We’re revealing a new treatment right now and our procedure room. Take it away, Doctor Ashton.

Hi guys So, I’m back here with doctor sheila Nazarian, board certified plastic surgeon and our patient Aaron. You’re going to be demonstrating this new microwave procedure to hit axillary hair, but before we get to that, tell, tell me why this hair bothered you, Aaron? Because I mean, you’re blonde, you wouldn’t mind.

I’m a personal trainer. I spend 95% of my day in a tank top in the gym or in a bikini and shaving every day is such a pain. No one likes to do it. I tried laser hair removal. It doesn’t work. If you have blonde hair and darker skin. So, I heard about mirror smooth So, thought I’d give it a try.

And you said it’s your game, okay, So, doctor Nazarian,

Yeah,

Go ahead and lie back Aaron. So, as you start working tell us a little bit about this technology. Who’s a good candidate for it and how? Does it work?

Well, the beauty of this technology is that everyone is a good candidate. Any skin colour, any hair colour? I’ve actually had the procedure performed on myself, didn’t get any hyperpigmentation from it.

So, you numbed Aaron up before we started, right?

Arron’s been numbed already. We’ve placed a temporary tattoo which basically gives us little tick marks. It’s really paint by numbers at that point and we use the microwave technology of mirror smooth to remove not only 70% of her hair with one treatment, but also the sweat and odour glands are also eliminated. So, it’s basically a little suction and some you know heat is applied, but because she’s numb there’s no pain.

You feel anything?
Fine, just a little pull,

Yeah.

And So, how many treatments typically does it take to really get a good effect?

So, 80% of people really only need one treatment. You’re going to get an 82% reduction in the sweat and odour glands and a 70% reduction in the hair growth. Which, if you’ve ever had laser hair, you know you need multiple treatments in order to get anywhere close to 70%.

So, what’s the cost range for something like this?

This that’s a great question. So, the first treatment is around 2000 dollars, but it’s, but if you think about how many laser hair removal treatments to do. I mean, it really is a great benefit and also laser hair doesn’t remove the sweat and odour glands.

Nice, well, 2000 dollars, meaning that you could throw away all your razors for the rest of your life.
Exactly

Right,

Never have to worry about sweating in your armpits again and being musty.

No more deodorant and think of all the money you spend on deodorant over a lifetime.

That’s true.

And it takes how long to do both pitch?

We usually schedule people for an hour at a time?
An hour!

So, can you imagine an hour and you’re done.
Oh my gosh,

Yeah,

Sign me up, scoot over.

Second string.

Amazing.

The one done idea is very appealing.

Exactly, yeah.

Thanks for sharing that with us and thanks for showing us your armpits,

Thanks for having me

You’re welcome.
