As a result of the weight loss I had a lot of loose skin- I hunted and searched for a DR I could afford and it was a struggle for me-over a period of ten years I saved up and found a DR in Atherton per a friend's recommendation-and decided to roll with it.While I am happy I got my skin removed from front I have had some not so good results from the process.Finding DR B AND VANESSA AND the team I feel like I have a support system and a life line for the rest of my life- since my previous surgery in 2019, I researched someone who could help me with my whole self!! I wanted more-the loose skin and the way parts of my body still looked , left me feeling uncomfortable in my own skin (literally) I looked into Slits ms spa and decided to invest in myself- I felt so supported heard and lovedthe healing combination of the procedure and the "whole person" approach are ingredients for life, healthy life and longevity !!DR D and DR Bansal has given me a fresh start-Dr D and Dr B along with Vanessa and entire team, again have restored the hope I lost- my light had dimmed - I feel renewed, my zest for life and positive energy have resurfaced. and have realigned my mind BODY and spirit I can't say enough about the beautiful gift elite Md spa and this crew - absolutely life changing in every way THANK YOU BELOW are my current before and after photos 5weeks post op- I had laser Lipo and jplasma renuvion-Lyhpatic massages and a lifetime of health light love and support"

"Amazing Results with an Excellent Staff! - I’m a 42 year old Asian male that really struggled with unhealthy habits during the pandemic. I was looking for a reset and needed to get back in shape and lose around 10-15 pounds. I had a previous consultation for laser lipo at another place prior to coming to Elite MD, and I’m so glad I decided to come here instead! From the initial consult to the post op treatments, everyone has been amazing. The deciding factor for me was after meeting Dr. Bansal for the first time, he really put me at ease and explained things about the procedure that I didn’t even think of, for example, he specializes in ethnic skin and that was not even something I considered. I was presented with multiple options for treatment and did not feel pressured to pick one over the other, it was left entirely up to me and what I wanted to achieve, which I really appreciated. Both procedures were thoroughly explained, and I ended up choosing vaser lipo for my upper and lower abs, and flanks. I am 7 weeks post op, and have lost 13 pounds as of today, no more love handles and my stomach has never been flatter. This result couldn’t have been achieved without Elite MD, the guidance they provided was top notch, they were thorough, knowledgeable, and care about my results as much I do. This is my first cosmetic procedure, and if I do decide on another one down the road, Elite MD would definitely be my first and last stop."
"I wanted to share my wonderful experience with Elite MD. I was wanting to get ride of my mid section belly fat for years. First meeting with Jeanine and Dr. Bansal was very educational and informative. Dr. B explained in detail all the option like tummy tucking, cool sculpting, and vaser. Vaser worked really well for me . Post operative care was excellant. Really happy with results."
"UPDATE!!!I have returned to Dr. Bansal for the second phase of my body sculpting and, once again, my results are wonderful as expected. I had my double chin and upper arms vaser liposuctioned with J plasma skin tightening on both areas. Due to genetics, these areas have always been problematic, even at my lowest weight so it was recommended to have these areas treated not only just for the aesthetic outcomes, but also to reduce overall inflammation. Once again, Dr. Bansal has been emphatic about my role in the outcome of the procedures, focusing on nutrition, meditation, and mindfulness to reduce stress and improve healing. This has resulted in better than expected outcomes for me. Dr. Bansal’s entire team is helpful, supportive, and informed and has made each of my experiences positive ones. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking to improve not only your appearance but wellness as well."

"Dr. Bansal performed vaser lipo and J-plasma (renuvion) on my inner thighs, outer thighs, inner knees and flanks about five months, and I could not be more thrilled with the results and my overall experience. To provide some background, I am a 37 year old female. I am fairly slim and athletic (5'10", ~137lb), but have some problem areas that bothered me my whole life that I was unable to slim down through diet and exercise, namely my thighs, which were disproportionately large compared to my slim upper body. Part of the problem was loose skin, especially in my inner thighs. The loose skin was a result of having lost a lot of weight as a teenager - the most I weighed was 210-215lb, at age 17. While my skin retracted well when I first lost the weight gradually through diet/exercise, it began to lose elasticity with time, making my inner thighs unsightly. I first attempted to do something about my problem a couple years ago, when I saw a doctor in San Francisco, who performed laser liposuction on my inner and outer thighs. The doctor convinced me that she could get rid of the excess fat I had in the region while tightening the skin using a laser. I was underwhelmed by the results of the procedure, which left my thighs uneven, unsymmetric (one thigh was noticeably bigger than the other) and with even more loose skin. Moreover, the doctor took out almost no fat, meaning I actually looked worse as a result of the procedure - my thighs were still big, but were now uneven and with more loose skin. I began to question whether it's possible to correct the problem with my thighs without doing a highly invasive procedure (thigh lift) but decided to see Dr. Bansal for a free consultation. During my consultation, I was told about vaser and J-Plasma, and decided to go with it after researching it a bit myself and realizing it was exactly what was needed to improve my problem areas without doing a thigh lift. The staff in Dr. Bansal's office were all incredibly helpful and responsive, especially Tricia Starke, the patient coordinator. She generally responded within an hour to any message I sent her and was very knowledgeable about the procedures I was getting, what recovery would be like, etc. Tricia even helped me find a caregiver to care for me after my procedure when I was having difficulty finding someone myself. I could not believe how much time and effort she spent on this - it went way beyond anything I was expecting, and the caretaker was great. The procedure and recovery for me were a breeze. The procedure was done under local anesthesia. In addition to being given medication to help you relax and manage pain before the procedure, you are offered laughing gas during the procedure to make you feel more comfortable. This worked wonderfully. I did not take any of the pain meds I was prescribed after the procedure as I did not feel I needed them. I had some mild soreness for a few days if I was moving around, and no pain at all while sitting / lying down. I suggest following the doctor's recommendation to get lymphatic massage following the vaser / J-Plasma. I had this done a few times within the first 3 weeks of my procedure, and I feel it greatly helped with swelling, bruising and overall healing. Following the procedure, Tricia made sure to check in on me several times to make sure I was feeling and recovering OK. Again, I was not expecting this level of involvement / care. Five months out, I cannot believe my results, which are still supposed to improve further. My saddle bags are gone, so that I can wear pants without long sweaters over them to hide my thighs, and shorts for the first time since I was a teenager. I have a thigh gap. The lumpiness and unevenness I had is gone, and the skin on my thighs is much tighter."
"Let me just start by saying if you’ve come this far, then look no more you have found the best! I am a 57-year-old female, I am very active, healthy and in fairly decent shape. That being said having carried twins in my early 30s, full-term, took a toll on my bikini stomach and left me with loose skin on my lower abdomen. I have been wanting a tummy tuck to get rid of my baby flap for many years. I also have wanted breast implants for decades. I started researching in earnest a few years ago, and realized it was very important to me to not go under general anesthesia, so I started looking at Vaser Laser Lipo with fat transfer to breast. I was attracted to Elite because they could do the laser, skin tightening and fat transfer to my breast at the same time, in office procedure, using local anesthesia only. I had my first virtual consultation with Vanessa. She instructed me on how to take pictures, upload them to a secure site where she looked at them and we had a long phone consultation. She took the time to answer all of my questions and explain everything in detail. I knew that day that I wanted to have this team perform my surgery! I did decide to do my due diligence and continued my research with other surgeons in my own area. Honestly, none came close to comparing. Not one gave me the time and attention that Vanessa gave me in that very first consultation, and none of them were able to perform the same type of Sculpt and Vaser laser with skin tightening and fat transfer IN office, using local anesthetic only. All the others said they could freeze my stomach fat, but none of them could promise that my skin would not end up being looser as a result. I came down for an in office consultation with Vanessa where she again gave me all the time I needed to ask questions get recommendations and pricing, and I felt more like a friend than a client. I booked my procedure date right then and there!Francisco did my pre-op and before pictures, and is so professional and kind that once again I felt very comfortable and right at “home”. Rea retuned many calls, always with that very recognizable ray of sunshine in her voice. She has a way of making you feel beautiful through the phone. Dr. Bonsall met with me and took the time to review the entire process with me in detail to make sure I understood everything and answered all of my questions. He explained what to expect during and after, and best practices in diet and treatment post surgery for optimal results. I left that consultation full of confidence that I had found the best. I can’t stress how important it is to be able to have a Doctor who is willing to put forth the time to explain everything to you so you feel comfortable and understand what’s going to happen. My procedure went smooth; all I remember is being at the spa having my head rubbed the entire time! It was very soothing and I was very comfortable throughout the procedure. I am grateful I found Elite MD. Dr. Bansal has assembled the best team of professionals who are compassionate, kind and caring, who all are passionate about their trade and take pride in their work. Everybody on the team makes you feel like you are a person and that you matter and not just a number or another dollar bill to put in their pocket. They truly make you feel like you’re part of the family. I am now almost at week three and I cannot believe the difference in my body. I feel great, I was able to return to work within a few days, and have had no pain and minimal discomfort. My entire abdomen is flatter. My baby flap and love handles are gone, my breasts are full and round and my smile is big and bright! I feel and look great and am excited and happy to be back in my body and loving it. Bonus: I had a scar from a previous liver surgery that runs down the center of my abdomen; it used to be raised and lumpy and had caused some uneven lumps on my abdomen. That scar is now almost unnoticeable. I highly recommend Dr. Bansal and his entire team."
"I’ve been a client of Elite M.D. for smaller-type procedures over the years, such as Cool Sculpting, liposuction, and Botox. All great. Everybody has been awesome. It’s as if you’ve become a part of the family. I’ve consulted with Vanessa a few times over the years and finally realized I wanted to get my neck done, that there was not a product/procedure out there that was going to give me what I wanted. Believe me, I researched for a long while. Well, for my 62nd birthday, I had decided on the mini face lift with upper eyelid surgery. I cannot express how happy I am with the results. Seven weeks out and I feel great, at this point there’s minimal swelling and I LOVE my eyelids and neck. Dr. House, Dr. Bensal, and Estetician Linda, along with the rest of the staff, have gone above and beyond and I definitely recommend this procedure and this talented, creative, and professional team."

"Another positive experience! - I am a regular patient of Dr. Bansal’s. I am extremely satisfied with my latest procedure, Vaser Laser Liposuction that was done 6 weeks ago. My results are looking good… Dr. Bansal is not only the best at what he does, he is also an educator of living a healthy lifestyle and keeping the fat off. He is honest, trustworthy and easy to communicate with. The staff is always professional and accommodating especially Vanessa! Without her personal care & professionalism i would not have had procedure. She is the backbone to Elite MD and I appreciate everything she has done for me!Updated on 8 Nov 2021:Dr. Bansal is professional, easy to talk to and his honesty is appreciated. I am a return patient who has referred many other happy results. Dr.Bansal is nothing only a Plastic Surgeon, he is a consultant for healthy living! He makes sure your in the right track to keep your weight down and live a healthy happy life. The staff is always good to me especially Vanessa!!! She is AMAZING! She walked me thru every step, always returned my calls, texts and emails in a timely fashion. She is personable, yet professional and knowledgeable! I highly recommend going to Elite MD for all your advanced dermatology & plastic surgery needs!"
"Its been 3 weeks since my Vaser liposuction surgery. I feel and look 1,000% better. It all started with a consultation with Vanessa reviewing before and after making decisions to go with lipo instead of cool sculpting (based on the type of results I wanted). The liposuction procedure was done in office which made it super convenient. After my procedure at post op appointment Doctor B informed me the type of fat they removed was extremely unhealthy. It was surprising to me because I do eat a healthy diet and workout. A few days after my lipo I was still sore but started to feel really good. Over the past few weeks my skin, eyes and entire body feels and looks rejuvenated. I am no longer tired and sore like I was before.The journey started because I wanted to look better but after removing all the unhealthy fat I feel and look great. New lease on life - Thank you to everyone at Elite MD. I"

"The 3rd time’s a charm! Personal, I believe achieving desired results from your surgeon are equally important as the effort one dedicates to maintain the results. My personal decision to sculpt my body started 3 years ago with Dr. Bansal. Although this journey took some time and has not been painless, personally it has been rewarding. Dr. Bansal is a sculpture of the body and mind. Educating his patients on personal meal planning, exercise and best practices of cosmetic surgery before and after the procedure. His work is life changes! Not only has my body transformation influenced my esteem, it’s also improved my overall thought processes in life for maintaining my heath. Dr. Bansal’s teaching and skills have profoundly impacted my consciousness about looking good, eating heather and feeling great! If you are seeking an honest surgeon, compassionate staff and desired body sculpting. Proudly I say, it’s Elite MD for me! Ask yourself, how could one go wrong? It’s in the name “Elite MD” Don’t take my word for it? Schedule an appointment and you’ll see. The staff and physicians are more than just the name."

"They have been super professional and knowledgeable. My doctor was Dr. Bansal and he was awesome! He made me feel at ease with his knowledge and was very nice. My results with laser Lipo were amazing and better then I was expecting. I am only 5 weeks post-op and already my results are wonderful. I can’t wait till all swelling is gone and I see my final results which will be even better. I highly recommend Elite MD and Dr. Bansal for laser Lipo."
"I would like to share my experience being a patient of Elite MD.From the moment I showed up for the consultation I felt cared for. Vanessa immediately welcomed me and took time with me to make sure all my questions got answered. We explored different options and was able to select a procedure ( laser liposuction) that would met my needs.Ivy was AMAZING!! I thought the service could not get any better. She assisted with my pre-op and was extremely thorough. She was able to break down the medical jargon to help me to better understand the steps from beginning to end.She basically held my hand the entire time and for that I am truly grateful! Dr. Geers performed my surgery and she was EVERYTHING!!!! I could not of asked for a more detailed, professional-skilled physician. She explained everything to me so that there were no surprises. There was just one surprise, I didn’t know I would look this magnificent! I feel beautiful.Thank you from the bottom of my heart Elite MD! You have gained another medical family member!"

"Real results and caring staff! - I highly recommend Elite MD to anyone that is interested in getting Kybella to improve their side profile and jawline. I decided to go to Elite MD because of their reputation and the results that I had seen with laser hair removal and CoolSculpting. Dr. Sonia did an excellent job of explaining the Kybella treatment process and making me feel comfortable. I also appreciated that she correctly set my expectations on how my results would look after the first treatment. At no point did I feel pressured to return. As far as results go, her extremely sweet team does an excellent job of documenting your before and after. They even gave me a call the next day to ensure I was doing alright. After my first session I can see my jawline is becoming more defined and I’m looking forward to my end results after my second session."
"So far my experience has been amazing! I found EliteMD through Instagram & always watch their live videos. I came across the "cool sculpting" video & instantly wanted to schedule a consult, as I would consider I'm a pretty active person just my abdominal area does not seem to go away no matter what I do. So I wanted to go this route. Consult:During my consult I met with Juliet, who is an absolute doll. She took a look at me & gave me my options. Flashback to being in the waiting room i was looking at the laser Lipo video they had going & actually considered wanting to do that instead, ok back to talking with Juliet (mind you I went in for a cool sculpting consult) she had mentioned that if I wanted instant results the laser Lipo would be the way to go. She was very knowledgeable and quick to answer any questions I had. So sure enough by the time I was finished with my consult I had made my decision I wasn't going to hesitate I scheduled my pre op & procedure for the laser Lipo. Day of pre-op: This was the day for paperwork, before picture taking & meeting with the Doctor. I first met with Ray who was nothing but awesome & made me feel comfortable & at ease. He explained everything I needed to do to get ready for my procedure. After the paperwork was done we went to take my before pictures which I was cringing to do but after meeting Ray I no longer felt that way. & lastly I met Dr. Bansal! He was very professional, intelligent & made me feel like he cared not only about doing my procedure but my well being as well. Let me just say my appointment started at 5:30 and I left at 8:00 that should tell you a little something about EliteMD. They take there time with you. They make sure you're well aware of any precautions, how to take care of yourself before & after procedure. All in all I have full complete confidence in Dr. Bansal & staff to take good care of me.***Procedure is tomorrow July 5th & I could not be more excited!! Will post updates ***For the most part I would definitely recommend my friends & family to EliteMD - I have never met a rude worker there. They always have a smile on their face & want to accommodate the best way possible. Clean environment & very professional.***UPDATE***7/5/18 DAY OF PROCEDURE:All I can say is i am absolutely 100% satisfied with the decision of choosing to get Vaser Liposuction by Dr. Bansal at EliteMD. The procedure was way better then I expected! I felt no pain at all they numb you up and make you feel as comfortable as possible. They even let you chose what kind of music you want to listen to since you're awake & all :) i know it's cliche, but I have my confidence back. It's been 10 years since I've seen my abdominal area this flat. I have worked my butt off to get in better shape but just could not seem to lose that stubborn belly fat. The staff & Dr. Bansal really took their time on me & was able to take out more fat then expected. I cannot wait to see my final results once I am completely healed. If I'm loving how it looks now I could imagine how I'll be feeling a few weeks from now. & remember the aftercare is always important so if you want great results you got to put in work to & properly follow the after care instructions. :)"
"So far my experience has been amazing! I found EliteMD through Instagram & always watch their live videos. I came across the "cool sculpting" video & instantly wanted to schedule a consult, as I would consider I’m a pretty active person just my abdominal area does not seem to go away no matter what I do. So I wanted to go this route. Consult:During my consult I met with Juliet, who is an absolute doll. She took a look at me & gave me my options. Flashback to being in the waiting room i was looking at the laser Lipo video they had going & actually considered wanting to do that instead, ok back to talking with Juliet (mind you I went in for a cool sculpting consult) she had mentioned that if I wanted instant results the laser Lipo would be the way to go. She was very knowledgeable and quick to answer any questions I had. So sure enough by the time I was finished with my consult I had made my decision I wasn’t going to hesitate I scheduled my pre op & procedure for the laser Lipo. Day of pre-op: This was the day for paperwork, before picture taking & meeting with the Doctor. I first met with Ray who was nothing but awesome & made me feel comfortable & at ease. He explained everything I needed to do to get ready for my procedure. After the paperwork was done we went to take my before pictures which I was cringing to do but after meeting Ray I no longer felt that way. & lastly I met Dr. Bansal! He was very professional, intelligent & made me feel like he cared not only about doing my procedure but my well being as well. Let me just say my appointment started at 5:30 and I left at 8:00 that should tell you a little something about EliteMD. They take there time with you. They make sure you’re well aware of any precautions, how to take care of yourself before & after procedure. All in all I have full complete confidence in Dr. Bansal & staff to take good care of me.***Procedure is tomorrow July 5th & I could not be more excited!! Will post updates ***For the most part I would definitely recommend my friends & family to EliteMD - I have never met a rude worker there. They always have a smile on their face & want to accommodate the best way possible.

"Talented Doctor and a amazing staff - Best Doctor around!!! Had laser lipo done on my upper and lower abs on June 3,2018. Dr. Bansal and staff were amazing!!!! I was so nervous going into the procedure, but Dr Bansal made me feel comfortable and the lipo was a breeze. No pain!!!!!! I'm 4 days out and I don't feel no pain. My stomach is sore as expect. Im so happy with my results. Thank you Elite MD"
"I had my first laser lipo surgery July 22, 2017 and my second August 30, 2017. Every time I go into this office everyone is so friendly and they make me feel like I've know them for years. Dr. G did my surgery and did a great job I am very pleased with the outcome (I still have some ways to go but with the proper exercise and eating habits it will happen). When I met Dr. Bansal for the first time (yesterday) he also made me feel very comfortable (which is comforting since I was standing in front of him in underwear only). I would recommend Elite MD to my friends and family."

"Been working w/ EliteMD for a year now. They are kind, professional & LISTEN to the client. I had belly laser lipo & have been working w/ Jeff & Linda on my skin to remove freckles & age spots, as well as keep my skin in a healthy state. I cannot understand any of the bad reviews of EliteMD! Yes, they are a busy business & ALL businesses serve to make money but I have never felt pressured or treated anyway that was unprofessional. In fact, quite the opposite-- they are welcoming & responsive to all my concerns. Fair & reasonable prices for the professional skill & attention to detail all the Dr & nurses have. I did mountains of research & had other consults before choosing EliteMD. I have never been happier w/ my skin & body. No one can create miracles but they do come close!"

"I got the laser liposuction in March 2016... today marks 3 months. Even though I was told this as a "body sculpting" procedure and not for weight loss, I have lost 38lbs so far in the last 3 months!! I have been told I look like I have gotten a tummy tuck but I didn't!! Elite MD and Dr. Bansal have helped me become a better person all around. This has been a life changing experience for me. They have taught me how to eat properly, what exercises are best for stress weight loss and recommended a few authors for self help books. All of the books have helped me deal with stress better than I was before and has helped me stay strong during hard times mentally. I have never felt better physically as well. All thanks to Dr. Bansal and Elite MD. Elite MD helps you become a better you! Its more than just surgery.... I feel like they saved my life, as I was headed down a very unhealthy road and was very unhappy. I now have family and friends who are changing what they eat and making the lifestyle changes necessary to live a happy, healthy life. I feel better than I have for at least the past 10 years, if not more and I owe it to Elite MD"
"I came to Elite MD with my brother who is a patient of Dr. Bansal around September 2015 for one of his follow-up appointments. While in the waiting room, I started watching their videos, looking through the catalogs and client reviews. I had always wanted to do something about my body, especially after having my 3 children, I was not feeling too hot or happy with what the mirror reflected. My 50th Birthday was coming up and my brother told me that as his gift to me for my birthday he would give me some money to get whatever I wanted done at Elite MD. First I was not sure what I wanted between Laser Liposuction or tummy tuck, I had a lot of questions and I probably drove the staff there crazy, sorry Vanessa and Candy 😁, anyhow, they were very helpful answering all my questions and helping me make a decision. I applied for CareCredit to finance the rest of the payment for my Tummy Tuck, bilateral flanks and bilateral sub-axila procedure. I had my surgery on 12/14/15, two days after my surgery I went for my Post-Op visit with Dr. Bansal, thanks to Sherry, within a week from the surgery I was able to stand upward. With the encouragement and advise from the staff and Dr. Bansal, I am learning to change my life, starting with my eating habits. Dr. Bansal continues being supported and keeping me on track. I had my 6 month follow-up check up today and he says I look great, I already know that 😁 Because I see it in the mirror and people who know me tell me I look great and that also boosts my self esteem. This has been Life changing for me, gave me back my self esteem and I like the way I feel and the way my clothes fit. I fell off the wagon for a little bit with my eating but I know I am getting on track and be better with all the support I have and I will not let myself go back to that old self. This is a lifetime change for me, I want to be healthy and starys with me being happy. I love the new and improved ME. Thanks Dr. Bansal Sonia Sandoval"
"After considerable research, I decided I wanted Dr Bansal to perform my Laser Lipo surgery; he and Elite MD have an excellent reputation and have not let me down! My first appointment was a (free) consultation, Dr Bansal answered all my concerns and questions almost before I voiced them, he is very thorough and takes time to educate you about the particular treatment you're about to have. My procedure was to be Laser Lipo of upper and lower abdomen, with flanks and sub-axila (the fat that can be annoying just under the arms). Dr Bansal makes it clear that for all the work he does, you must also do your share. I found this inspiring and was eager to do whatever it would take to get the best result possible. I am now 6 months post op and have lost 15 lbs and gone from size 12-14 trousers to size 8 in skinny jeans : ). I look and feel better, I have more energy and can wear clothes that are more flattering than the baggy things I used to wear to cover up. Following Dr Bansal's advice I continue to eat well and sensibly so I don't overload my system with toxins, I do not feel I go without anything at all. I've learned to listen to my body, recognizing when I feel full after eating and stepping up my exercise once I was able. There is a period of time when you really have time during recovery when it's advisable to take things easy and not get your heart rate up; this just makes the body swell after surgery and you take longer to recover. My thanks extends to the whole Elite MD Team! Candy, Sheri and Vanessa have always offered advice and support....I have recommended Dr Bansal to one of my best friends and will continue to look to him and Elite MD for future treatments!"
"Elite MD is "As Good As it GETS!! I am a personal witness and very pleased with my results. I was looking through a magazine one day and saw an article about Elite MD. I found this article very intriguing so I did some additional research on Elite MD. The results were very favorable, experts in their fields, excellent reputation, state of the art equipment and USING leading technology. After a few days, I decided I would call and make an appointment. To my surprise, the friendly staff was able to schedule my appointment the same day. My first appointment was a "free" consultation for "Cool Sculpting". Dr. Taylor answered all of my questions, he was very thorough and honest about the potential results. He could tell by the look on my face that I wanted better results so he took me to the Elite MD Laser Lipo experts next door. Once again, I was greeted by very friendly professional staff members. All my questions were answered and Vanessa spent time educating me about the procedure. I left there with two (2) quotes and unsure about what I wanted to do. Two weeks later, I attended an Elite MD Open House where I had a chance to talk with Dr. Bansal one or one. Dr. Bansal addressed all of my concerns and spent additional time educating me in depth about the expected results, the procedure, down time and how to get the results I wanted. I couldn't believe that a Dr. would spend that much time educating a non patient. I walked away feeling very confident that if I decided to have Laser Lipo Surgey, Elite MD was the place for me. Eight (8) weeks later, I get a phone call from Joan, at Elite MD, telling me about new pricing being available and that I should come in for a new quote. I was initially reluctant, but Joan was very encouraging, so I agreed to do so. THAT WAS THE BEST DECISION I EVER MADE!! THANK YOU JOAN!! I am very pleased with the procedure results, mentally and physically. I feel like a new person. The excellent staff walked we through the Pre-Op/Post-Op process step by step and the procedure it self was a breeze. I had little to no pain during the in office procedure ( I don't remember any pain). The next thing I knew, I was getting dressed to go home. My downtime was approximately 1 1/2 days and I was back to work. The patient care, phone calls and my follow-up appointments have been fantastic!! What a Great Team of Professionals!!Thank you Elite MD!! DR. BANSAL, DR. G, VANESSA AND SHERRI. YOU ARE AWESOME!!!"

"27 Year Old Mom 5'7 267 Pounds Laser Lipo - Danville, CA - Dr Bansal with Elite MD in Danville CA is a God send! I have struggled with my body image for the last 5 years as I gained 80 pounds due to high emotional stress. During my consultation Dr Bansal was efficient, personable, highly energetic, and knowledgable. He recommended laser lipo on my abdomen and flanks. I was thrilled he was confident he could help me and peace of mind that it was not as invasive as tummy tuck since my BMI was 40. I am extremely happy with my results I have lost 20 pounds in the last three weeks it has totally reshaped my body making clothes fit better and gave me the confidence I've been lacking."
"Elite MD Dr. Bansal I have never done any procedure (just chemical peels) and I felt so informed and taken care of at Elite MD. I ended up, after many questions and multiple conversations with the different staff members, getting Laser Lipo on my flanks (love handles) and lower abs. I also decided to do cool sculpting on my inner thighs. I'm super pleased with the Laser Lipo and have recommended it to my closest of friends. I found Dr. Bansal to demonstrate a tremendous amount of care and concern for his patients and to ensure you get the best results possible. He's so genuinely caring, that because of his consultation a few days after my procedure, ad his confession that the took out more fat (and "stress induced fat") then he thought was possible from someone of my fame, I got motivated to jump start a health kick. I've given up red meat, started practicing meditation and trying to reduce stress and toxins in my life. (I haven't given up the wine yet). THis procedure is so rewarding. My body image is fantastic, I stand up taller and am wearing clothes that haven't fit since my 2 daughters! (4.5 and 1.5 years old). Dr. Bansal and Elite MD are top notch. I have recommended them to my best friends."
"I have nothing but great things to say about Elite MD, their staff and most of all Dr Bansal! I first attended an Elite Freeze Event, wanting more information on Cool Sculpting. After speaking with staff members, I wanted more information on Laser Liposuction. I was impressed with the knowledge of all staff and was able to meet with Dr Bansal that very day. I decided to schedule the procedure and proceed. Upon my pre-op appointment, Dr Bansal and I decided for optimal results, general anesthesia vs local anesthetic would give me the results I was looking for. Upon day of surgery I was nervous, but well prepared by staff and Dr Bansal. It was painful upon waking, the staff at the surgery center were phenomenal! There was the option in staying overnight, I chose to go home. It was very painful for the next week, several methods for pain control were provided. I am now on day 9 post op, feeling MUCH better and my results are nothing shorter than amazing! Many compliments for family/friends close to me during the process. I'm a nurse in Emergency Medicine and have seen some awful things, patients whom were not prepared, misinformed and chose to go a "less expensive" route. Physicians I work with refer patients to Dr Bansal in these circumstances. I was provided with several choices each having an expected outcome. Dr Bansal sat down spent much time with me regarding the process; his responsibilities as well as mine for the best outcome. In less than 2 weeks, I'm making tremendous life changes to live a longer and happier life.... I give special thanks to Dr Bansal and his staff. There's an honest care for improving peoples' lives and it is apparent within this establishment. Thank you all at Elite MD for giving me a new beginning to the healthy/happy rest of my life!"
"I must say that Dr. Bansal is great. I was a candidate for a tummy tuck but decided against it because I didn't want the scarring and went with laser liposuction in the upper and lower abdomen, bra line, flanks, sub axilla, waist line, a bit towards my back since I was under anesthesia and they can't move me over and more recently my arms. I'm very excited with my results. I'm doing my part on eating better and cut back on the toxic foods I was eating and feel and look better now. I'm glad I came to him and his staff for my procedures. I highly recommend a few vaser shape treatments after the procedure to tighten everything up and to get rid of any fat deposits. I did more than the recommended amount and feel that made a bigger change with my results."

"Okay I had researched many Cosmetic Surgery facilities prior to finally selecting Elite MD. I have an extremely medical family Nurses, Doctors, Dentists and Physical Therapists. I know what quality medical care is and what isn’t.I must explain that I am a 64 year old fit male with prior belly fat and localized fatty tissue in various locations on my shoulder area toward the rear and hip area. I have had personal trainers, nutritional consultants, and Naturopaths advise me on what to eat and how to exercise to irradiate this fatty tissue. Since 2009 I have spent no less that $15,000 on trainers, hormone therapy, and diet programs including Medifast.The fat that one has in middle age is that which will hang in there as a reserve come Hell or High Water. Blood glucose, then muscle glucose, then finally fatty tissue stores are your body’s source for fuel. I eat no sweets, bread, pasta, or fatty meats and yet the fat continued to cause me multiple problems. I am 6’2" and weighed 262 prior to laser liposuction. The belly fat had invaded my internal area under my muscle and was pressing on my diaphragm making me huff and puff to breathe. In addition I could not even ride my bicycle as the belly fat made it difficult to bend over to hold the handle bars.Having seen this problem, Dr. Bensal advised me that laser liposuction was the best modern approach to this problem. He was extremely professional and made it clear that the best way to tackle this was to remove as much visceral fat (all of the harmful fat) at my abdominal region and the flanks and rear shoulder area.I am extremely delighted with the results. YES it’s a sore and uncomfortable recovery, but I feel that the fat removed was well worth it. Fat takes on its own life and develops its own blood system. This system unfortunately serves to transfer the fat from that fatty belly tissue throughout your entire body.

"Okay I had researched many Cosmetic Surgery facilities prior to finally selecting Elite MD. I have an extremely medical family Nurses, Doctors, Dentists and Physical Therapists. I know what quality medical care is and what isn't.I must explain that I am a 64 year old fit male with prior belly fat and localized fatty tissue in various locations on my shoulder area toward the rear and hip area. I have had personal trainers, nutritional consultants, and Naturopaths advise me on what to eat and how to exercise to irradiate this fatty tissue. Since 2009 I have spent no less that $15,000 on trainers, hormone therapy, and diet programs including Medifast.The fat that one has in middle age is that which will hang in there as a reserve come Hell or High Water. Blood glucose, then muscle glucose, then finally fatty tissue stores are your body's source for fuel. I eat no sweets, bread, pasta, or fatty meats and yet the fat continued to cause me multiple problems. I am 6'2" and weighed 262 prior to laser liposuction. The belly fat had invaded my internal area under my muscle and was pressing on my diaphragm making me huff and puff to breathe. In addition I could not even ride my bicycle as the belly fat made it difficult to bend over to hold the handle bars.Having seen this problem, Dr. Bensal advised me that laser liposuction was the best modern approach to this problem. He was extremely professional and made it clear that the best way to tackle this was to remove as much visceral fat (all of the harmful fat) at my abdominal region and the flanks and rear shoulder area.I am extremely delighted with the results. YES it's a sore and uncomfortable recovery, but I feel that the fat removed was well worth it. Fat takes on its own life and develops its own blood system. This system unfortunately serves to transfer the fat from that fatty belly tissue throughout your entire body.

"CoolSculpting Was an Amazing Experience! - Danville, CA - I got married last month and before the big day I decided that I wanted to lose some weight. I spent over 3 months on a strict exercise / workout diet. I lost over 20 lbs but it wasn't enough to fit into my dress the way I wanted. I was looking for non-surgical fat loss options and CoolSculpting sounded the best. I found Elite MD on Google and their testimonials / acknowledgements impressed me enough to try them. Dr. Vivek Bansal was my plastic surgeon and he was wonderful. The procedure was quick, no more than an hour in the office. It was painless and the post-procedure effects were extremely minimal. All I had was just a slight tightening sensation in my sides where they applied the coolsculpting. I would highly recommend the coolsculpting procedure and elite md. Their plastic surgeons and staff were excellent. Anyone looking to lose some weight fast and cheap should choose this. I would suggest Elite MD to anyone in the east bay area."
"Amazing Practice! - Danville, CA - I first met Dr. Sonia about four years ago after seeing her on KRON 4. I called and made a consultation for laser liposuction. Dr. Sonia spent a good amount of time with me consulting me about the procedure and then I even met Dr. Bansal the same day. Dr. Sonia was so informative and made me feel so comfortable that soon after I scheduled my procedure. Since then I have used Dr. Sonia for a possible skin cancer on my lip and she quickly got me in and took care of it. She is always so caring and personable. I have also used Jeff for botox, juvederm and laser treatments...he is also amazing. I have used Linda for facials and she is the best there is. I have also had three procedures done by Dr. Bansal and he is a true artist at plastic surgery. I am so glad I called and met with Dr. Sonia four years ago and in turn met an amazing office for both dermatology and plastic surgery. I will never go anywhere else and have referred many, many friends and family and will continue to do so. Everyone has been more than happy with them!"
"I'm Taking Pictures Again!!! -Danville, CA - For the last couple of years I have not taking any pictures for fear of my double-triple chin taking over the shot. I got laser lipo about three weeks ago and already love the results, and my profile makes me cry, I have one now. I still feel a little sore and don't have full motion with stretching my neck but I was told all this before so its not a surprise to me. I just can't believe that a couple of hours at Elite MD could change my life! I would add a photo but I don't have any on this computer."
