Depot injection. A depot injection is an injection, usually subcutaneous, intradermal, or intramuscular, that deposits a drug in a localized mass, called a depot, from which it is gradually absorbed by surrounding tissue. Such injection allows the active compound to be released in a consistent way over a long period.
The Vanquish TM is a tunable, focused bipolar radiofrequency device which is FDA-approved for deep tissue heating. The deep tissue heating preferentially focuses in on the fat layer, and causes it to shrink by causing most of the fat cells to die off.
Vanquish is a revolutionary device that uses focused-field radio frequency to zap fat without ever touching the patients body. It heats the skin to 101 degrees and the underlying fat to 120 degrees. It does not require contact with the patients body. Heat is delivered and absorbed into the treatment area.
