Vanquish ME: contact-free thermal fat reduction at Photoderma
Vanquish ME is the non-surgical fat elimination technology that uses safe thermal energy to heat deep fat cells without touching the body. At the Photoderma clinic in Laval, the device targets the abdomen, flanks, thighs, knees, back and bra line in 45-minute sessions, without damaging the skin or surrounding muscle tissue.
How does Vanquish ME melt fat cells without contact?
The device's emitter panel is positioned above the area to be treated, without resting on the skin. The thermal energy passes through the epidermis and selectively heats the most stubborn deep fat deposits. The targeted fat cells self-destruct and are then naturally evacuated by the body.

Why choose Vanquish ME over another technology?
Vanquish ME stands out through three characteristics that make the treatment easy to fit into everyday life. At Photoderma, the technician confirms them at the consultation based on the area to be treated and the goals.
Quick procedure
A full session takes 30 minutes to 1 hour. The exact duration varies with the area treated and specific requests, and lets you plan the appointment on a break rather than a half-day.
Long-lasting results
First improvements can appear a few days after the first treatment. Results are achieved even without a strict diet or rigorous exercise, and last as long as you maintain your current weight and lifestyle.
Largest coverage per session
To date, Vanquish ME is the device offering the treatment that covers the largest body area per session in the world. The entire abdomen and flanks can be addressed in a single appointment, without contact with the skin.
