"Vaserliposuction with J-Plasma Renuvion.This was my second surgery with Elite MD. First one was over 10 years ago and I was extremely satisfied with results.I am now three weeks+ since surgery and see dramatic improvement in my stomach/abdomen area. The office follow-up has been very helpful. The lymphatic massages twice a week and aftercare appointments have improved the texture of my abdomen and Rema is a very skilled masseuse. Dr. Bansal and staff are always positive and available for any questions."

"I could not be more pleased with the results - My case was not run of the mill. I was looking to do a revision on my gynecomastia as well as abdominal lipo suction. Dr. Bansal took the time to fully evaluate my case and guide me through the options. He recommended surgical correction for my gynecomastia and the HD lipo to get the chiseled look I was hoping for. I could not be more pleased with the results. The surgery went off without a hitch and really showcased his strong artistic skills. To top it off, I also had the Renuvion skin tightening procedure done to really get everything nice and snatched. Lastly, the aftercare with Reema and her lymphatic massage were really critical in recover with minimal down time. I highly recommend Elite MD and Dr. Bansal for providing the complete, 360 package."
"I went to EliteMD after seeing Dr Sonya's commercial on their liposuction procedure. I had just reached my weight goal but wanted to get rid of those pockets of stubborn fat areas that exercise and diet were not resolving. However, during my consultation with Dr Bansal, I expressed not wanting tummy tuck surgery and that I would like a little volume in my breast. We agreed on liposuction and fat transfer to the breast. I must say that my experience with EliteMD was way beyond my expectations. Dr Bansal and the entire staff gave me all the support I needed, pre-op and post op, to achieve the best results. With every post op visit with Dr Bansal it became less about the physical appearance and more about my whole self. He encourages a healthy lifestyle and the transformation of the whole person. I am very pleased with the outcome of the procedure and with my whole "Transformation!" Thank you Dr Bansal and the entire team. Dr Desvigne, Tricia, Rema, and the entire staff!"

"Dr. Vivek Bansal is medically training by one of the most prestigious College of Medicine where he earned his MD degree. Dr. B knows his stuff, he’s a teachers teacher, and his passion for educating his family of patients is bar none… Dr. Bansal specializes in both reconstructive and cosmetic surgery. His specialties are breast, face, and body sculpting. Due to his expertise in laser liposuction, Elite MD is a premier site and training center for physicians across the country to learn the most advanced techniques in Plastic Surgery. But, in addition to all of his accomplishments, Dr B is a deeply caring and soulful healthcare provider, Dr. B’s approach doesn’t just addressed the body but the whole person, and he delivers results that are astoundingly amazing!!! Transforming and enhancing the quality lives is Dr. B and Team Elite's specialty The entire Elite Team is without question one of the best comprehensive networks, they know how to move as One, ensuring every patient experience is the best, and never afraid to take ownership and make things right, Dr. Bansal stands by his work✨ Priced moderately, not the least expensive, (but then, I learned,) you pay for what you get, if you want the best, then make the Investment.

"My experience with Elite MD was phenomenal. I had Lipo done in my stomach area and my Fufa and I had fat transfer to my hip dips and a little bit to my buttocks. The surgery went so well that I recommended two people and I one of them have already had work done, and the other one is in the process of getting work done. The staff is so professional and so polite. I would recommend you check this particular office out for any type of cosmetic or plastic surgery my experience was just a transformation like no other. There’s nothing bad that I can say everything from the beginning to the end. My transformation and the journey with all that I want it and receive. I like to thank the staff, who was also pleasant, and made me feel very comfortable and you have to get the massages. The young lady that do the massage will put you to sleep once again thank you all for helping me achieve the looked I want it and received."
"Exceptional! Lipo, fat removal on upper arm with fat transfer to my hip dips - My journey with this doctor and his staff was absolutely amazing my journey I went in going to have Lipo done on my stomach and my Fufa and I had fat removal from my upper arm with my braces that and I also had a fat transfer to my hip dips. My transformation is phenomenal. Everything that I asked for was done. The doctor himself is such a pleasure and make you feel so comfortable when he is explaining to you what will transition once he is done with sculpturing my entire front part of the body and my hip dips I would recommend and have recommended to people and they have had their work done and are very happy and satisfied at the results. He has helped me also to change my diet, and eating habits I eat more healthy. He is concerned about what’s on the inside, as well as how you look on the outside, very very concerned about your health. The total experience was so relaxing no pressure me personally did not have not one pain at all throughout the whole journey of my transition to where I have nothing. Nothing negative to say about this particular doctor and his staff is so phenomenal please when you are considering to have any type of plastic surgery done cosmetic surgery done check him out at Elite MD located in Danville California. Thank you thank you thank you."
"Elite is True to Name! I am more confident and my clothes fit amazingly - Let me start by saying this: I took about six months to write this review to make sure that it was comprehensive and addressed at least six months of my experience with Dr. Bansal & the team at Elite. From the moment I walked in the door, Tricia was incredibly kind and thoughtful, and she really made me feel at ease with my consultation. I explained to her that I already had a consultation at a major medical company, and they advised that I needed to lose 20lbs before they would do a tummy tuck. I was feeling discouraged. Tricia gave me comfort by letting me know that I didn’t need that procedure. This was great news because I was at Elite for info on the vaser liposuction procedure after seeing those commercials over and over. Lol. I had a complete consultation, paid my deposit, and left with my surgery date on the books!I spoke with Dr. Bansal for my pre-op by phone and he assured me that he would take care of me like family. He knew I was concerned about what the other surgeon told me about losing weight as well as potential complications from having sickle cell disease. I found relief in the honesty/transparency from Dr. Bansal. He advised that I did not need a fully invasive procedure like a tummy tuck, and he was confident in his ability to achieve my desired outcome with minimal downtime and minimal scarring. He was so confident that he even offered to do the tummy tuck if I was not satisfied with the results minus the price I was already paying for vaser lipo. On my surgery date, I already had all of my necessary medications and was relaxed prior to starting the procedure. The procedure was completed on an outpatient basis, and I went home to rest immediately after. I followed the doctors orders with regards to diet, limiting physical exercise, and even watching certain documentaries. I returned for my first post-op lymphatic massage with Rema and I was surprised at the results after just a few days. The pinch test was no joke! Fast forward to today and I just completed my fourth lymphatic massage with Rema (I didn’t follow the exact scheduling recommendation initially) and I am mesmerized by the results. I am more confident and my clothes fit amazingly well, accentuating my curves. I could not have given myself a better birthday gift. pI am really big on self-care and would only recommend a provider that understands holistic health care and treating the whole person. Elite absolutely lives up to their name. I would highly recommend the this dynamic team to anyone seeking cosmetic or dermatological services."
"I've been on a "journey" most my life-from trauma and some other life challenges- I began healing myself spiritually, a little later in life, but started the process nonetheless .both mentally and physically and in 2010 I was told I had diabetes taking meds and pricking my finger.

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."
"Astonished! Snatched this ethic body! Never thought I'd get rid of muffin top - Dr. Bansal snatch this ethic body!!I am content with the transformation he did on me. I never thought I would get rid of the stomach muffin top, but Dr. B assured me, when I wake up from the surgery the muffin top would be gone. Dr. Bansal also consulted with me about the inflammation, and toxins that was going on in my body. His concern was that, after my procedure, I would learn how to eat clean (better), become healthy, and medicate to stay stress free. I can’t forget about the stunning staff at Elite MD, are beyond amazing. To just name a few, Vanessa, Christian, Cheryl, Crystal, Rema, Marisol. I am overjoyed to have them care for me during my life changing journey.Updated on 21 Sep 2023:I’m overjoyed with the outcome of the tummy tuck and liposuction Dr. Bansal and team preformed on me. Not only does my body look amazing in and out of clothes, my health choices has changed. I have a new outlook on eating, exercise, and mindset."
"Life Changing - a journey to health and wholeness - In August 2022 I went into Elite MD to get information about breast augmentation surgery… I did not have an appointment nor did I expect to meet Dr. Bansel, he was coming out of surgery and the young lady introduced us snd said o want to get breast surgery, I know he was tired and I can’t really tell you why he felt the need to talk with me, but he says cone in my office and key me look at you… As I explained why I wanted breast surgery, he asked me about the fat and inflammation around my abdominal, I told him I knew it was bad and I would love to get a tummy tuck but I couldn’t afford one, I had 3 c-sections and the muscles need to be reattached, he shared with me the Vasor lipo procedure and ask me to consider it before the breast surgery, due to the unhealthy fat around my stomach… I had never heard of that (yes I have heard of lipo) However I didn’t think it would make a difference for me… however I left there with a new found hope, not to have a wash board stomach but to start a journey to health and wholeness… needless to say I opted for the lipo surgery and it was one of the best decisions I have made, not for the results which are great, but because I have a found hope for health..but it’s been after the in office procedure that had helped me the most ..Dr. Bansel did not know that I lost my mother in march and my youngest son in July 2019 and I have been struggling with depression and anxiety since then.. when we had our post op consultation he told me that 80 percent of my belly fat was from cortisol (the stress hormone) and that we were going to work together to help me get healthy… all I could do during the consultation was cry, I’m not even sure to this day he knows why, I had never met a Dr. And his staff to not only be too on their field but to actually care about their patients and not be about the bottom dollar.. Being a self employed entrepreneur myself I know how important authentic customer care is, and his great it is when your client becomes family.. so do i consider Elite MD my family .. Yes I do.. and my results .. we’ll look at my pictures and see for yourself .. as I tell them when I leave ( I have a habit of just dropping by) I just love you guys .. with sincere appreciation Ronna G"
"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."
"My life has been completely and forever changed. I am absolutely in awe with my results from my vaser liposuction and J-plasma procedure with Dr. Desvigne and the team at Elite MD. From the first visit with Tricia to my surgery to my incredible lymphatic massages with Reema, I am a huge advocate for the entire team. The entire staff has treated me like family, and I truly feel like they have created the standard for patient care that all other cosmetic surgery practices should uphold.Now to my personal results: I am an active mom of two who had a stubborn belly that would not go away. I have run marathons, competed in CrossFit competitions and several triathlons but never had the cut belly that I wanted. I realized that my genetics just didn't cut it and it was time for intervention. I researched heavily and spoke with other practices but I was drawn to the ideal of vaser liposuction given the reduced downtime and EliteMD's innovative in-office, local anesthesia procedure. In meeting with Tricia, she also recommended J-Plasma which would help tighten my mom tummy after the fat was removed. In meeting with Dr. Bansal for my pre-op appointment, he noted that I was a candidate for a tummy tuck but that they would do their best to help me achieve the results I was looking for. He stressed that it would be "one-third surgery, one-third my adherence to really taking care of myself through meditation, rest and diet, and one-third the universe". I had full confidence in the Elite MD team!Surgery went so smoothly and I was feeling great in just a few days. I needed to be reminded to rest and really take care of myself (instead of everyone else, which is my norm) and that truly stuck. Since then, I have had multiple lymphatic massages with Reema and I cannot say enough about how necessary those are to amazing results. Her hands are MAGIC. I literally cannot believe the results. EliteMD's vaser/J-Plama procedure completely removed the need for a tummy tuck. I am only 5 weeks post procure but my stomach is flat, I don't have any loose skin and I feel like a new person. YEARS of abs cannot do what Dr. Bansal, Dr. Desvigne, Reema, Crystal, Sam, Tricia and the team did for me. If you are considering lipo or an abdominal procedure - do not pass GO, go directly to Elite MD."

"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."

"finally did something for myself! I have been "dreaming" of getting rid of my fat tummy for a long time...too long! I got a referral from a friend and I am so thankful I just went for it. I have always talked myself out of it with the, "it’s too expensive", "I don’t want to be under anesthesia" and "It’s fine the way it is". What I learned was that it was affordable with the financing options, I did not have to go under general anesthesia, and it was perfectly tolerable for me to be sedated for a quick procedure. I met with the consultant for Liposuction with JPlasma skin tightening, and she was lovely and informative. I had some follow up questions and she took my call right away and was able to help me. Then I got to meet with Crystal and Dr. Bansal and they are so easy to talk to and came up with an action plan that was right for me. I was a little nervous the day of, but the awesome nurses at Elite MD put me at ease and got me comfortable right away. I was so impressed with the level of care, it is so different from any other practice I went to over the years. After the surgery, I went home and slept for the rest of the night with zero discomfort. My 20 year old daughter was able to care for me and help with drains, food and helping me walk around a bit. For me there was no pain during the procedure and very little discomfort following, I was on medication, but also numb in the procedure area. I was actually getting myself pretty worked up anticipating the pain, but it never got to any level of true pain. I am just very grateful to the entire team. This is the best thing I have ever done. The customer service element of Elite MD is beyond words. Their main goal is to support you and get you to your goals and they really care. Every person I encountered was at the top of their game, just very impressive. Front desk, scheduler, consultant, management, doctors, nurses, all of it, just wow. I made my body dreams a reality and I am even booked for another procedure because I am worth it. I would whole-heartedly recommend this practice to everyone. I am so happy with my results, I feel so safe and loved by them and my life has been changed for the better because of Elite MD! This is the happiest I have ever been."
"I received a BBL (back fat transfer only) from Elite MD in December 2022. I’m two months post-op and am quite pleased with the results! Here was my overall experience. Consultation (Oct 2022):I received a consultation in October 2022 for the BBL. I had already done lots of homework and knew exactly what I wanted, but it was good to chat with the doctor live. The consultation was quite procedural as expected.Surgery (Dec 2022):The surgery itself was in the Danville office with Dr. D as the lead. Not much that I can really report other than I wasn’t in any pain. The procedure was local anesthesia, but I felt like I was pretty knocked out for the whole time despite not having general anesthesia. In addition to the actual fat transfer BBL, Elite MD also did a fantastic job of sculpting my back to help create even more curves to emphasize the results of the BBL.Post-Op Care (Dec 2022):Within the first two weeks of surgery I had 2 or 3 check-ins at the Danville office. While the appointments weren’t always on time, once Dr. B was in the room I felt like I had his full attention without the feeling of being rushed. Elite MD also gave me a very prescriptive post-op program that I think is actually what the made the biggest difference in keeping my results. Perhaps the most important part was Rima, Elite MD’s lymphatic massage specialist who can work wonders on moving things in your body to where they need to be.Overall:All this to say that I’m super satisfied with the results and my only regret is not doing this sooner. The surgery was fairly pricey, but I actually received a different consultation estimate at another local provider that was more than double Elite MD’s rate. Yes, there are even cheaper rates if you travel for this type of surgery, but I always felt safe and in good hands during the whole process at Elite MD. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a BBL. In fact, I will likely go back for another fat transfer surgery in the next year or so!"

"Dr. Vivek Bansal, Crystal, and Elite MD staff gave me life back! Elite MD makes you feel like family and are in constant communication before, during and well after procedure. There is a 24/7 concierge service for patients. Overall, an extremely educational experience, the most caring doctors and staff - the best in their field!9 years ago I was decently fit, running 5k’s, and working my way up to a 10k. As life happens, over this time, several changes occurred in succession. I injured my ankle during the last 5k, diagnosed with breast cancer (currently a survivor after lumpectomy), suffered a miscarriage, went through menopause and too many other life-altering adventures to list. Not to mention, I have scoliosis and rods in my spine constantly working against me and I have to push through to stay healthy and active every day. With all the set-backs, I didn’t know who I was anymore. As though I had woken up in someone else’s body and somehow 9 years had gone by. I ate healthy and worked out and did everything I could to get back to me. I hit a wall. Somehow, I had gained excess belly fat I never had and could not seem to make it go away. I seemed to injure my back trying, which wasn’t helping, before I could see any results. I felt ’stuck’. Always looking in the mirror with the thought of " if I could just erase this part" like live photoshop, that would be great. I had always researched new technologies and several facilities across California, but was never sure if these procedures where right for me. Then I came across Elite MD in Danville. I started the consultations around June 2022. The consultation was very educational, no upselling or pushy about scheduling. It was always up to me to continue conversation and move forward or not. Great perk is that they also offer financing options. I continued asking questions and getting more educated over several months and opted to have Vaser Lipo with JPlasma skin tightening on December 28, 2022.One major concern was that I did not want to be under general anesthesia and was happy to learn a local would be used and pain and recovery minimal. I say ’minimal’, but recovery would be minimal based on me doing the required work. As Dr. Bansal says, we do our 1/3, you do your 1/3 and the universe does the other 1/3. And sometimes like me, you go above and beyond. I am beyond thrilled to say that I am down 20 lbs! Dr. Bansal removed 12lbs from upper abdomen, lower abdomen, flanks, and tightened the skin. I have worked away 8lbs just by changing my diet! I am now 7 weeks out from procedure and have only done some light yoga and brisk walking. I had minimal bruising, drains in for only 7 days and no major pain. My abdomen has never been flatter and more toned. I now have only slight discoloration and am healing daily. Amazing work! Elite MD gave me a jump start and my life back to the point where I could take control and continue this journey to the best me of my life. I am going to be 49 and surely am not feeling it! Nor do I look it ;)"

"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."
"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."
"Fantastic care, communication, support & results! Liposuction & J-plasma - I went in asking about a tummy tuck with a limited budget. Trish Starke explained that I’d be a great candidate for J Plasma Liposuction. This was a fraction of the cost and in the end gave me the super flat tummy I wanted and more. Dr Bansal explained the pro and cons. Under his advice, I opted to add a few areas like upper pelvic, partial sides and under arm bra line to make the results proportional. He made it affordable and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I can’t say how nice and informative the entire staff is. From the receptionist to the after care lymphatic massage specialist - Thank you Monica, Tricia, Vanessa, Crystal, Rema, Dr. Desvigne and most of all Dr Bansal. As well as the rest of the team in Danville, CA. They went above and beyond to make sure I recieved the best care and results. Not to mention saving me from added recovery time, pain and money of a tummy tuck. I couldn’t be happier with this alternative J Plazma Liposuction procedure!!!"
"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."

"Skinny/mini BBL - very natural but visible results - Dr.B and staff are amazing. Dr.B is fully transparent about realistic results. I got vaser lipo and Jplasma on my back, and the little fat I had, transferred to my but. Very natural but visible results.Updated on 26 Jan 2023:Somehow my review got published without me finishing. Here is the rest of my review.I'm around 4 months post op and now seeing more of the permanent results as the swelling has subsided. The fat in my hips didn't survive (which can be common), but majority of fat transferred to my but, did, which I'm happy about. As mentioned, I didn't have much fat to begin with, so I'm grateful to see a a subtle, but noticeable difference. I had some lose skin from weight loss which is why I opted for the jplasma. I can see a small difference so far, but I know it can take up to 6 months to see the full result. Another thing I was very nervous about is the hard lumps and bumps you see a lot of people complain about after lipo. I do not have any! I'm sure some of this has to do with me being consistent in getting my amazing lymphatic massages (Linda is amazing), but it really has a lot to do with the surgeons technique. Lastly, I want to emphasize the top notch, family oriented service you get as soon as you step foot into the practice. From the initial consult, to my post-op appointments, I am always treated with respect and feel like family. Vanessa is the one I met with during my consult, and she is truly the reason why I chose EliteMd to perform my procedure. She was so informative, knowledgeable, and made me feel so comfortable. She was always there when I had any questions, before and after my procedure. Once I met Dr.B, I knew I had made the right decision. He spends so much time with you before your procedure. I really appreciate how he sets realistic expectations from the start. One thing that really set the bar high is how much time he spends with you AFTER your procedure. He wants to make sure you are happy with your results, and he makes you feel comfortable in asking any questions, addressing concerns you may have, etc. You just feel safe with him!I am still seeing subtle changes and looking forward to seeing my results st the 6 month mark. Will post an update then. Thanks EliteMd!"
"I read about Dr. Bansal’s good reviews on RealSelf and, being from the Bay Area, was very familiar with their advertising on local television.I got my first BBL in 2021 and was not very happy with the results, so I decided to get a revision BBL surgery here at Elite, MD. I felt very supported throughout the process and let’s just say that everyone was very attentive to my needs, unlike the previous location where I had my first BBL. They are very holistic with their care and set you up for success. It seems like they really care about their patients! Vanessa, especially, really went above and beyond to make sure I got an appointment date that worked best for me!Another quick shoutout to Crystal who was very meticulous about asking what I wanted the day of the surgery and going through the different ways of sculpting they could’ve done!The surgery itself went pretty smoothly and the recovery process has been great! I absolutely love my results!"

"I absolutely love Elite MD! Highly recommend. I had a really hard pregnancy and my muscle separation was really bad. They did a tummy tuck and breast lift and I love my results. Vanessa the sales director got me a incredible deal and was always available to take my call or answer my questions. Cheryl the chief of staff was also super welcoming, She made me feel so comfortable and was really easy to talk too. Dr. Bansal did an amazing job and I'm really in love with the results. Everyone at Elite MD made me feel at home and super comfortable. I will definitely go back if I ever need anything done again. My only regret is I didn't do this sooner for myself!"

"My first BBL - extremely happy with the results so far - I recently had my BBL surgery with Dr. Bansal and crystal Kherkher from elite md in Danville, Ca. I m extremely happy with the results so far. He was very upfront and made me felt comfortable with entire process from my initial consultation through my recovery. My Patient Care Coordinator Tricia Starke has been extremely professional and has taken care of all my needs. I also want to recommend Rema B. Juse my MA/Cool Sculpting Specialist who has been essential to my recovery and also has been very friendly and professional."
"I was in my late 40s, was at my heaviest, and was unhappy with myself when I first looked into a tummy tuck. No other doctor would touch me at my BMI and then I found Dr. Bansal of Elite MD. I met with Dr. Bansal and he said he would perform my tummy tuck; that he wanted to help me. I'll never forget it. He told me he would take care of me as he would his own family which made me feel at ease; that I was going in good hands. The procedure was performed at a surgery center in San Ramon. I was happy with my results back then and still am happy at present. It was the best decision I made for myself as I was able to wear all types of clothing. This boosted my self-confidence. I'm so grateful that I found Dr. Bansal and that he was willing to help me.Fast forward, post pandemic, now early 50s, I started looking into a thigh lift since I was unhappy with the skin laxity of my inner thighs. I was impressed by what I saw on an Elite MD commercial advertising JPlasma aka Renuvion (a skin tightening procedure) and I called to see if this could be done on inner thighs. After talking with Vanessa and meeting with Dr. Bansal, I decided to go with the JPlasma and a little lipo instead of an invasive thigh lift. The procedure was scheduled to be done in-office under local. I was a little nervous as what to expect (would I wake up during the procedure or feel any pain while the procedure was happening) but I took the medication prescribed to me prior to surgery and fell asleep. I didn't feel or remember anything at all. Woke up at home in my bed. I would definitely do in-office again over general as my experience was good and I didn't get sick like I do coming out of general. I am now post-op 5 1/2 weeks (went back to work after week 1) and am happy with how my legs are looking--the line/shape of my legs that Dr. Bansal created is pretty and the JPlasma did tighten my skin. It keeps getting better and better each day. I'm still healing and very excited to see my full results in 9-12 months.I had three lymphatic massages by Rema as Dr. Bansal said it would help with the swelling and heal faster which was true. Rema is the best. I feel very comfortable with her. She is down to earth, skilled, knowledgeable, and wants the best for her patients. I am ashamed to say I did look into other places that offer this massage at a lower rate as Elite MD is high but I stayed with Rema as she is an expert who has vast experience working with all types of plastic surgery patients. All Elite MD staff are nice, professional, helpful, and welcoming and I would like to give a special shout out to Vanessa, Sherri, Rikki, Crystal, Rema, Francisco, and Maricel for assisting me with my questions/concerns, paperwork, procedures, appointments, etc. during my journey.I want to mention that Elite MD's messaging system has improved drastically since my tummy tuck days. They now use a software called Klara which tracks all messages and someone always responds, either office staff, Dr. Bansal himself, or Vanessa (Vanessa responds even after hours and on weekends and am super happy with her customer service--the best). Now I'm confident that my messages will be read and responded to in a reasonable amount of time. Dr. Bansal is a knowledgeable and skilled surgeon and is also down to earth, approachable, caring, and comfortable to talk to. He always takes the time to discuss with me the importance of caring for my health and well-being such as eating the right food, exercising, and ways of bringing down my stress level. He doesn't only tell you but I am provided with various resources to watch/read/purchase--documentaries, handouts, books, cookbooks, seminars, etc. He's also the kind of doctor who doesn't sugar coat anything when it comes to the condition of my health or unrealistic expectations which I prefer.In my experience, Dr. Bansal and his staff are excellent. If you are on the fence. Got for it. You'll be in good hands."

"Satisfied Patient with Three Different Procedures - I first came across Dr. Bansal's practice at Elite MD in 2021. My wife signed up for an onsite consult and was immediately impressed by the clinic, the staff, and Dr. Bansal. She told me about it and I scheduled an onsite consult for myself. I was immediately impressed by Tricia. She was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and informative. She explained all of the procedures currently offered at Elite MD and asked what I was specifically interested in, and why. This thoughtful approach to understanding what the client wants, in my opinion, is preferred over a pressurized sales pitch. There is no pressure at Elite MD. Their work speaks for itself. In fact, Elite MD is a premier clinic--one of the few on the planet that performs vaserlipo and JPlasma (Renuvion) right there in their clinic. Patients literally come from all over the world to have Dr. Bansal perform the procedure on them. They have every right to be snobby, but they are far from it. I saw all of these positive vibes and decided to take a chance. As of last week, I have completed three (3) procedures: 1. vaser lipo front; 2. vaser lipo back; and 3. vaser lipo and Jplasma in the abdomen. My wife also signed up for the in-clinic vaser lipo procedure and is ecstatic with her results too. Totally worth it. All three times I was blown away by the professionalism and compassion displayed by all staff. For example, Francisco, Willow, Tricia, and Rema are all extremely professional and competent practitioners who all made me feel very comfortable throughout this extremely nervous journey. These procedures have totally changed my life. I look great and have even stopped taking my diabetes medication!However, the thing that blew me away the most was how nice and amazing Dr. Bansal is. He cares about his patients. That's a fact. He will be the first to tell you that he cannot do a certain procedure because it is not safe for you, or because it may not yield the results or outcome the patient is expecting. Another example is when I called the after-hours telephone number a few days after one of my procedures because I had developed a mild fever (100 degrees) that was probably unrelated to the procedure. My wife and I were blown away when Dr. Bansal called me within 2 minutes of leaving the message. It was a Friday evening around 10pm, and when most people are spending time with their families or enjoying the evening out, Dr. Bansal prioritizes his patients' well-being first, over his own, and to me it felt like nothing mattered to him at that moment than to see how I was doing. I'll be honest with you, I was not expecting to get a call back from Dr. Bansal as quickly as I did. I was expecting perhaps one of his nurses or PAs to call me a few hours later. But when I got a call back within 2 minutes, from Dr. Bansal, my wife and I said to each other, "Of course Dr. Bansal called us at 10pm on a Friday night himself." That's the kind of dedicated doctor he is.If you are looking for a clinic that will do whatever procedure you want without regard to patient safety, and charge unreasonable fees, then you should look elsewhere. However, if you are looking for a surgeon and his entire staff who put your well-being and safety at the forefront of everything they do, and can perform vaser lipo and J plasma procedures in clinic, with reasonable fees, then go to Elite MD. Ask for Dr. Bansal. He IS an elite MD."
"Took the max 5 liters - thrilled with the results - I am a week out from my VaserLipo with Dr. Bansal. Everything went as described. I chose this procedure over a tummy tuck because I did not want general anesthesia. Dr B took the max 5 liters and I am thrilled with the results so far. I am bruised and a bit tender, but nothing like I anticipated. I have now gone back for my one week follow up. Stitches and drains are out. Today I’ll be getting my second lymphatic massage. I feel this has helped in my speedy recovery. Also, I have been following the “No meat, no wheat, no sweets” instructions. I think that the Elite MD team are amazing. I feel well cared for, and part of the Elite family."
"Just do it - wish I had done this years ago - My experience with Dr. Bansal and his team has been excellent. I had a tummy lipo with j-plasma with fat transfer to the breasts, and I'm very happy with my results. Dr. Bansal's team is not only professional but also friendly and encouraging, and they will put any fears you may have to rest. It is surgery after all, so it's no walk in the park, but rest assured you're in the best professional hands. The surgery is done in office with local anesthesia, too, which is way in terms of ease and recovery is far better and simpler. I was originally hesitant to get this procedure to begin with because I have darker keloidal skin and was afraid of the scarring. The scar sites are minimal and have already faded significantly. The biggest scars are for the drains, but they are hidden within your underwear line, and I suspect those will fade in the next few months. If you are considering this procedure, which I recommend you do, be sure to book your lymphatic massage right away, within a week at most. It really helps with recovery and how your body recovers post-surgery. No doubt in my mind if I were to do this again, I would go with Dr. Bansal, and if I consider more surgery in the future, I will surely return."
"8 Days Post Op and I Cannot Believe How Flat My Tummy Is - Wow! My entire experience at Elite MD Spa and with Dr. B has been OUTSTANDING! I initially scheduled consultations with three surgeons. The interview with Dr. B was arranged by his patient coordinator, Patricia, who was extremely knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire process. I immediately felt a home and welcomed at the spa, from the front desk staff, Patricia and from Dr. B. After I met with Dr. B, I was so impressed, I cancelled my consultations with the other surgeons. I went in requesting a Tummy Tuck. I'm post-menopausal and the last two years, it seems like no matter what I did, I could not lose my tummy fat. I was devastated and stopped training, which of course means my tummy got bigger. :-( To my surprise, Dr. B did not recommend a TT, but instead recommended Vaser Lipo which his office specializes in. It is less aggressive than regular lipo offered by other surgeons. The VL also meant a less invasive procedure with significantly reduced down time.I also appreciate that Dr. B and his staff don't view patients as a bodies in an assembly line, but they really care. They are friendly and extremely attentive. Another HUGE pro for me is that Dr. B emphasizes his patient's commitment to life changes and proper nutrition for sustained results.Finally, I'm impressed that Dr. B specializes in treatments for people of color and "ethnic skin." His wife, Dr. Sonia, actually authored a book on skin treatments for people of color.Dr. B is in such high demand that the earliest appointment I could get with him was 2 months from my initial consultation. I chose to have the procedure conducted in his office with only local anesthesia. I took prescribed medication immediately prior to the procedure, and I was out the ENTIRE TIME and I felt NOTHING! I have a low pain tolerance, so this is HUGE! A remember chatting before the procedure and then getting into my bed at home several hours later. I don't know what happened in between! LOL!I am now 8 days post op and I CANNOT BELIEVE how FLAT my tummy is!!!!! Even with the swelling! I had a lymphatic massage about 6 days post-op (I highly recommend this) and was stunned at my tummy in the mirror after Rema worked her magic.Now I have a jump off point and I am committed to nutritional lifestyle changes (highly recommended by Dr. B) to keep this tummy FLAT!Do yourself a huge favor-book an appointment with Elite Md Spa. You will not regret it!"
"He has given me a new confidence with my new body - Dr Bansal is very professional and a wealth of knowledge. He is very caring and will provide his most honest opinion which is highly valuable when there are so many choices of surgeons who tend to make us feel unimportant. I am very happy with his work and wholeheartedly recommend his expertise. He has given me a new confidence with my new body which I will forever be grateful. His staff are all so sweet, caring and equally supportive as he is. I never thought I would be one to get a tummy tuck and lipo but I am glad it was in the hands of Dr Bansal and his wonderful team."
"The whole process was seamless. So happy with the results - Highly recommend Dr Bansal and his team for mommies or anyone not happy with their body no matter how much exercise and dieting have been done! I have been exercising regularly after having three kids, lost some weight and got more lean with help of my personal trainer however needed a noninvasive procedure to help tighten my tummy area. Learned about VASER and realized that Dr Bansal provides top notch VASER services in my area (and also recognized globally in the field). I scheduled my consultation visit and received a wealth of information from start to healing and beyond from Dr Bansal and his team. I decided to get VASER and J plasma (skin tightening and collagen building) on my lower body. The whole process was seamless. Key things I focused on was mainly to follow all the steps recommended and ask questions if not sure. I am 6 weeks post-op and notice how lean and fit i am. I also have more energy following the diet regimen recommended by Dr Bansal and team. I am so happy with my results and recommend Dr Bansal and Elite MD to everyone!"
"Vaser liposuction of my back and sacrum and a fat transfer (“mini bbl”). - I am approaching 3wk post op. I love how thorough Dr Bansal and his staff are. Their quality of service is A1! From the beginning until now. I got vaser liposuction of my back and sacrum and a fat transfer (“mini bbl”). He is very educated and made me feel very comfortable with my decision. I am so happy with my results thus far. I hope it lasts!"
"My amazing tummy tuck transformation! - My experience at Elite MD has been over the moon! I had a tummy tuck in May 2021. My surgery was something that I was going back and forth about for about 5 years. I had a consultation a long time ago but financially I wasn’t ready. I was so insecure with the way my stomach looked. I couldn’t see my belly button for the longest time. After crying and complaining to my husband I decided to come back for another consultation and after speaking to Trish who is beyond amazing and guided me through the process. I met with Jules and Francisco who are also amazing and they explained the procedure and what would be best for me and my situation and what I was looking for I was able to book my surgery date. The last part was meeting the man himself Dr. B! Dr. B came in and introduced himself, we discussed the surgery procedure and what I was looking for. He guided me and he made me feel so comfortable and he was so honest. I knew I was in good hands and I was so excited. The suregey came and from start to finish everything was amazing. The staff was super helpful and caring, they went over and beyond to make sure I was well cared for. Dr B checked in on me and reassured me that the surgery went wonderfully. From the 1 day post op until today my 7 month post op Dr B has been amazing. He has been such a great support system and great surgeon, from giving me advice and telling me what I need to hear. Most importantly my results of my tummy tuck are AMAZING! I feel great, I look great. I feel secure with my tummy area, I can see my belly button. I feel super cute! I would do all over again and there is other things that I need to work on that I would love Dr. B to do. I want to thank everyone at Elite MD for being so friendly and so attentive every time I come into the office and every time I call because I did call and text a lot during my recovery. I would 1000% recommend Elite MD. As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway."
"Unimaginable results! Minimal scarring and minimal downtime - I had an incredible experience with EliteMD, Dr. Bansal, and the entire team there. From my initial consultation with Tricia to my pre-op with Francisco and my post-op treatments with Rema I was absolutely stunned at how wonderful my experience was. I had received two plastic surgery consults before I found EliteMD. Both of those surgeons told me I needed a tummy tuck in order to achieve the results I wanted. With two young children and a demanding career, there is no way I could take the time needed to heal and recover from a general anesthesic tummy tuck procedure. I had almost given up until I found Dr. Bansal. My initial consult with Tricia was life-changing. She was so warm and welcoming. She made me feel comfortable, she was empathetic to my needs, and I never felt judged. My previous experiences with other plastic surgery consults left me feeling like I was just another number, Tricia made me feel special. She held my hand and talked through all the options with me. She followed up with zero-pressure and went above and beyond to make sure I was happy and confident with my decision to move forward with the procedure. When I met with Dr. Bansal he was confident he could help me achieve my goals. I’m beyond pleased with my VaserLipo results. The procedure was painless! I was given oral meds that helped me relax. To be honest I slept through the entire procedure, and woke up at home, with very little discomfort. I went from a size 14 to a size 6 in a few hours and I didn’t feel a thing! I opted to have the VaserLipo to remove the fat, and J-Plasma to tighten the skin. I was carrying a lot of fat in my mid-section. My body was completely out of proportion, I had a big tummy with small hips and legs. It is amazing that Dr. Bansal and his team (Nicole is fantastic,) could remove so much fat from my mid-section in a few hours with minimal scarring and minimal downtime. The recovery took me a little bit longer than I expected, I was pretty sore for about 10 days, mostly because of the drains they put in during surgery to help drain the fluids. I really was ready to have my drains removed on a Saturday, but they don’t remove on Weekends so I had to wait until Tuesday - which was absolutely too long. I recommend they hold a few hours in Saturdays to help patients who were in between for drain removal like me. Once the drains were out I was so much more comfortable. Dr. Bansal always takes his time when meeting with me. He answered every question I had and made me feel comfortable. He is sincere, and a truly cares about holistic healing and treatment. My post op treatments with Rema have helped speed up my recovery exponentially. She is a gifted healer and has this fun demeanor that instantly makes you feel comfortable. I imagine I’ll continue to see her to help improve my results.I’m only 10 weeks post procedure and my results are unimaginable. Can’t to embrace this new body and watch my health improve day by day."
"I can finally show my legs after vaser and fat transfer - I’m very grateful dr. Bansal did my surgery, I am very happy with the results. It was hard finding a doctor that could do fat transfer on lower legs. He is amazing and very honest. He did my vaser liposuction and transfer fat to my lower legs. I could finally show my legs:)"
"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!"
"My "GO TO" Place for Cosmetic Procedures and Treatments. - Today I had Dysport and Forma (non surgical skin tightening) for my neck. Both were painless and I was put at ease. I have also had Liposuction Surgery with her husband, Dr. Vivek Bansal, best decision ever. Can't wait for my future treatments."
"There's so much goodness to share about Elite MD. The entire staff and experience has been quite wonderful. With my first time working through any sort of aesthetic procedures I was really nervous and unsure about what this journey would look like. However walking in day one working with Tricia, who welcomes you with open arms and is chock-full of information really set the stage for everything else. She was transparent along with the wonderful Dr. Bansal and Dr. Pao (who facilitated my procedure) on which procedures would work best. In lieu of a tummy tuck which was the primary recommendation but not some thing that was in the cards at the moment, I decided to go for a two phase vaser Lipo procedure which was all done in office!! The treatment facilities are top notch, the patient care and attention is white glove. Special shout out to Francisco, Nicole, Reema, Vanessa (and ok maybe just everyone) who've seen me at my most vulnerable and made me feel like a rockstar. What most people don't talk about is the emotional support needed not just from your family but also from the team that is helping you through these life-changing procedures. Elite MD in the entire staff does that. I am six weeks postop and so grateful and optimistic that my body has responded while I also take initiative to change my own lifestyle which is some thing that Dr. B really preaches - self-care is going to provide the optimal results. I appreciate his candor and though there was a lot of work to be done on me he was willing to take the risk and do everything in office so I fully trusted his advice.I've also been going to Elite now for Dysport a Botox type treatment and have also been quite happy with those results. All in all as long as you are willing to be vulnerable but also do the work the team is going to go above and beyond for you. They have certainly set the bar for excellence and I also now have a new family.If there are any opportunities for improvement it is understanding the investment (costs) which they were able to provide some options for all but it is an investment that is well worth it. Also just some buttoning up on communications around scheduling and rescheduling were a bit disjointed at times however the team made up for it by over communicating other times.Run, don't walk to Elite.."

"Overall I am completely in love with my results - This experience has been completely life changing! Not only do I look better I care for my body differently now as well. Given that I am an ethnic woman I have always wanted the coke bottle shape which I finally have. I had no idea I could have a procedure like this without anesthesia and still have little to no discomfort or bruising or scarring. With the help of this staff reminding me to stay connected with my mind, body ,and soul at every check up appointment was very reassuring. Thanks to the no meat, no sweets, no wheat phrase I am glowing from the inside out! Not only do I feel my best my skin is clear and my energy levels are much higher. My BBL turned out to be everything I wanted with the most natural results, all my friends are so surprised because everyone thought I would have the fake instagram look, which I did NOT want. Both Dr.Bansal and the staff here helped to make this experience very easy and and comfortable theY were great with answering questions and everyone has a very sincere up-beat personality. My aftercare process went smoothly I had no complications. My caretaker was amazing always checking to make sure I was okay all day and even through the night multiple times. Thankfully for her I didn’t have much to worry about, just focused on healing. I loved my results so much from my BBL I came back to get a fat transfer to my breasts.I had almost 4 finger gap between my breast before and they had no toluene or cleavage. Now I have cleaveage with or without a bra and no implants to worry about! All natural fat. Second time around things were al little more familiar and an even better experience with the same staff and caregiver helping I was able to build great relationships and now still come in for facials (hydro facials are the best). Over all I am completely in love with myself and my results I would highly recommend Elite MD and their staff for the mini BBL, fat transfer to breasts and ab sculpting!"
"I’ve had lipo, fat transfer to breast and BBL all in office - I have had nothing but an amazing experience every time I walk into Elite Md. I’ve had lipo, fat transfer to breast and bbl all in office. Dr B is a loyal surgeon who not only leave you feeling great in your new body but will take time to coach you through life goals and health for maximum life long results. In addition to cosmetic surgeries I’ve done Vela shape, laser hair removal and Hydrofacials. All great experiences. The team at Elite is professional,extremely friendly and makes sure any procedure/service you have is comfortable and exceeds the standards. You are not only a patient here, you are family. Thank you Elite Md!"
"Head to Toe Transformation - Came in for a consult regarding the fat on my arms. I ended up getting a tummy tuck first. After a couple months I had surgery on my arms. I was only under local anesthesia, meaning I was awake, but, comfortable during the whole process. Dr. Bansal opted to do liposuction with a new technique called Renuvion/JPlasma. My arm measurements went from 15.5” to 13.” I am now ready for my summer dresses. Next up is a facelift; like I said “head to toe transformation.” Best decision was to visit Elite MD."
"Elite MD offers "elite" professional, first class personal service. Nutrition, skin care, lymphatic massage, cosmetic surgery and more. Elite MD offers a procedure called the VaserLipo. I'm telling you instead of going with a much needed tummy tuck, the VaserLipo offers very similar results. The great thing is that it is done in the office, no cut and no scar and the results are miraculous, even better than a tummy tuck because of the body contouring which provides amazing results and a little curve. The doctor requires a next day postop the day after the procedure to make sure the patient is on the path to a full recovery and then there are other post op appointments for the next 6 months. In between time the nursing staff will do a weekly check- in just to make sure you are healing properly or to see if you have any questions or concerns. The added bonus is the nutrition element that encourages a healthy diet providing clear glowing skin, increased energy and overall better health. Wait, I forgot to mention meditation and yoga along with the nutrition program. "Hot Girl" summer here I come..."

"It has literally changed my life - Just a few months ago I couldn’t have imagined saying these words, but I had in-office Vaser liposuction and a mini BBL and it was the best decision I’ve made. Not only did Dr. Bansal educate me on what would help me achieve the results I was looking for, but he taught me how to get healthy, stay healthy, both physically and mentally, and it has literally changed my life. Everyone has treated me like family before and during my procedures, as well as the aftercare to keep my mind and body happy. Thank you Dr. Bansal and my friends at Elite MD."
"I was there for lipo, about six weeks ago. Hard to believe the transformation they did!! Tricia was wonderful helping me understand the procedure and it gave me confidence to go ahead with my decision. Dr Bansal really knows what he's doing and I was in good hands sculpting my body. Rikki, and all the staff was there during and post op with Dr. Bansal. If you want quality work with professional guidance on what's best for body contouring they are the ones!"

"It's been 7 weeks since I had my tummy tuck and liposuction. I am more than pleased with my results, thus far. Dr. Bansal is an amazing doctor! The staff are incredible people who really care about you! It all started with my appointment with Tricia who is so nice and easy to talk to. Rikki (nurse) is SO knowledgeable and sweet. Francisco is the sweetest with an adorable personality. Linda is always so nice and kind. The whole staff is really incredible! Not only does the staff care, but they walk you through everything pre-op and post-op.Unfortunately I had one little spot that didn't want to heal, but Dr. Bansal and Rikki have been taking great care of me! I'm on the mend!The only thing I can think of to better the practice is, being better at returning phone calls. There has been a few times I had a question and no one got back to me or if they did get back to me, it was the next day."

"Fat Transfer to Breasts over Existing Implants - I wanted to fill in around my breast implants to give a more natural and soft look. I have wide hips and a narrow waist so I knew more volume would look good with my figure. Dr. Bansal is extremely skilled at fat removal and placement to the breasts. Fat was taken from my arms and the outer thighs. I purposefully gained weight prior to surgery to provide better fat deposits. My arms look great and I have no negative outcomes there. I chose arms because Dr. Bansal explained that the quality of fat was typically high there for retention. I don't store a lot of body fat in my arms so as I get leaner, the muscles become quite pronounced now. I'm not sure if it will look strange at a low body fat percentage. I store a lot of fat in my outer thighs, so taking fat from this area has added a nice shape to my figure. I am prone to cellulite and I have notice a bit of increased cellulite. However, I was warned of this possibility. My breasts have increased about a cup size. They are softer and fuller, but the shape has improved quite a bit. There is a more natural slope and the breasts meet closer in the middle now. The worst side effect that I have gotten are collections of fluid filled cysts. From my research, this happens when breast are dense and there is some excess fluid buildup. They are in the same spot on both breasts which indicates to me that it is pressure related. They are quite uncomfortable but there are treatment options like aspiration. I also got one sebaceous cysts which is from infection under the skin and burst. This has left a red mark and bump that I dislike seeing. In terms of infection, I did find it strange that Dr. Bansal conducted this surgery in the office (not a hospital). This makes the price better, but I did worry a little about infection. I had no necrotic fat tissue which is a relief. I'm unsure if the sebaceous cysts was caused by this. I think it is important to note that I may be genetically prone to cysts. Several of the spots where fat was taken still have some scaring. I am hoping that they will fade. Overall, I am happy with my experience at Elite MD. The staff are very kind, Dr. Bansal went above and beyond in explaining the procedure, and he spent hours with us in post-op and follow-ups in the months following."
"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"

"Got a mini bbl here complete with Vaser lipo to my back w/ fat transfer to buttocks. The process was very smooth & everyone was great. Rikki and Dr. B are professional & do a great job. I’m still healing so results are still pending but so far I love what I see. One thing they could work on is being better at calling back... there were a few times I called & no one was available to speak with me. When I did get a call back the lady I spoke to seemed like she didn’t care. Everyone else is amazing- Dr. B, (heart of a teacher) Rikki, Juliet & Francisco all were the very best to me."

"I have been working with Dr. Bansal for over 5 yrs and he always makes me feel like family. - I received lipo of my back the 2nd part of my 360 lipo and tummy tuck. I have been working with Dr. Bansal for over 5 yrs and he always makes me feel like family. He makes sure I have everything I need to heal and to get the best results from my procedures. Vanesa is always a great help with figuring out what's best for my body. She is like having your best friend in the room with you."
"ELITE MD has TRULY changed my life forever! Thanks so much to Dr.Bansal and Juliette! Out of so many doctors I went too I chose Dr.Bansal for a fat transfer and I’m so glad I did! I will for sure be back for more."
"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."

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."

"I've had the best experience with Dr. Bansal and Vanessa they made me feel right at home. I can call or email and always get a response. I had a tummy tuck 5yrs ago and now I'm back for phase 2 of my surgery and it's like I never left. I will always come back for any of my needs."

"Amazing doctor - I recently had Vaser lipo done to my entire back with fat grafting to my buttocks, and I truly don't regret it. I'm almost 3 months post op and I LOVE my results!Dr. Bansal will tell you nothing but the truth! I appreciate him so much for taking his time during my procedure.Updated on 27 May 2021:This was only 3 week post op, entire back liposuction transfer to the buttocks. "
"Going to Elite MD is the best thing to ever happen to me. Dr. Vivek Bansal and Dr. Sonya are truly beautiful people that want the very best for you. A completely holistic approach to bringing your inner and outer beauty into alignment. The whole team Tricia (patient coordinator), Ivy, Marcela, Francisco, Rena are there to support you.I wanted to be sure I did all my research and met with over a dozen of the best doctors in the Bay Area. Elite MD is the only place for me, they want to not only educate you, they help you realize the best version of yourself. They took their time answering all my questions and had as many consults as I wanted to feel comfortable.Today I am the person I always felt on the inside. I am more confident and feel more joy because of the work done with Dr. Sonya, Dr. Vivek, and Dr. Geers. The hydrofacial works wonders on your skin. It provides medical grade microdermabrasion that leaves your skin glowing. Treatments with the Velashape III and Zwave can do wonders to stimulate collagen and shape and tone tough areas. They offer everything you could ever need."
"Dreams Do Come True - I finally decided this year was my year. I met with over a dozen doctors. I came back to EliteMD, Dr. Bansal & Dr. Gerrs. After two children my breasts had lost significant volume and my stomach had extra skin. I had researched over three years ago a tummy tuck. I was always hesitant due to the scar. Dr. Bansil put all my fears to rest and delivered more than I could have asked for.The reason I chose them beside feeling very confident with their experience with these procedures. I knew they would help give me the body of my dreams. They are all about teaching and providing information. They take a holistic approach to your health and on my consult day Dr. Bansal had me sit with a very successful health coach. This was before I had decided to go with them!Throughout the consult, to appointments pre-op and post-op the doctor and team with EliteMD was responsive, helpful, always answering all my questions and any concerns.If you are considering a mommy makeover or any of the individual procedures I have no doubt this is the place to go. I cannot speak more highly of the team at EliteMD."
"I went to Elite MD for a mini facelift. I was having problems with a split muscle and scar tissue in my abdomen. Surgeons wanted to use mesh to repair it. I asked dr. Bensal if he could repair it without mesh and remove the scar tissue. He said not a problem, he uses triple stitches. I asked as long as he was repairing everything if he could do a tummy tuck. He did and found inflammation and cortisol fat. I was a mess with less than a year to live had I not gone in. Two of my doctors have backed it up. He has me on an anti-inflammatory diet. My psychological and physiological Health are getting better everyday. I feel great. I have had other procedures and a couple more to come. I owe Elite MD my life thank you with all of my heart."
"I have had several procedures* performed over the past year at Elite MD with exceptional results.Their philosophy of using the most innovative, less or non-invasive and successful methods shows their desire to provide the best care for their patients. The doctors and staff genuinely care about each patient and treat me like family. My world has changed because my outlook on life and the future has changed. I have renewed confidence and am generally happy. I highly recommend Elite MD for any physical transformation or dermatological process. You won't regret it! *Hair restoration of my eyebrows and scalp. Lipo and tummy tuck, mini face-lift, and laser resurfacing on my face. The results are unbelievable; I feel and look 10 years younger."

"I am absolutely astonished at the results of my tummy tuck and body sculpting! I think I look amazing and I am 63!! Dr Bansal is very passionate and skilled and his enthusiasm for his work is contagious. I am convinced that Elite MD is the best place to have cosmetic procedures and surgery. I am confident that they are cutting edge and have the best of the best doctors. The staff is incredible as well. I know they really care for their patients and the personalized interest they continue to show me is wonderful! In my opinion there is no other place to go!"
"Both Dr Bansal & Dr Sonia are amazing with their helpful advise and recommendations, but most of all their bedside manner. Their staff is amazing as well. My Cool sculpting experience went great with Miss Rema. She made my procedure so enjoyable! A well oiled machine is the best I can put it... Thank you Elite MD!"

"For those whom are considering tummy tuck, lipo, breast augmentation etc.. let me tell you that my experience has been NOOOO REGRET here with Elite MD. Elite MD in Danville is the place to go for more than just surgery but a complete body transformation!! They have specific doctors that specialize in different procedures, this is a great thing because they do these practices over and over again with grand results!! When I was researching whom to go to, I never found a review to make me feel confident whom to choose. I chose Elite MD because my friend got a mommy make over and I was blown away!! Results amazing!! Her results are obviously what won me over rather than reading 4-5 star reviews on websites regarding other surgeons whom I didn't even know. My friend was that 5 star result and now so am I! The thing here is that it's not just a surgical procedure; you will be getting but a whole body transformation!!! A body transformation is the results because I learned about the type of body fat I had and why!! I was given the resources to change my lifestyle in order to CONTINUE with my body transformation and keep it!!! I am 5 weeks postoperatively now, driving on my own since week 4, no pain meds after week 1, just Tylenol here and there. Keep in mind everyone's pain tolerance is different. After my surgery worst part for me was getting my range of motion back from my shoulders (stiffness with pain with stretching) this is normal but it comes back!! For the tummy tuck (piece of cake) stomach is numb so you have no pain!! That's because my surgeon knows a great combo of medications during surgery and also some numbness may stay as a result of a tummy tuck. Hardest part is to tell your body to stand up straight but that could all just be a mental challenge really. Learning breathing techniques stretching and learning to eat clean or deleting inflammatory foods prior to surgery is ideal and this is what elite MD teaches and provides resources to you as well!! Just DO NOT treat yourself like your sick or you have a disability and do all the instructions given, nothing less or nothing more!! Always do what is advised, I believe this is what has given me great results at a fast pace! You can call the the office at ANYTIME with questions and concerns and staff will get you the right person to speak with! They don't make you feel stupid, rushed, or just like a "surgical case" if anyone knows what I mean! I'm always looking forward to my visits although I come from a distance. All my questions are answered thoroughly and with patience. Office environment totally feels like home and staff is so nice, funny and make you feel like family!! Dr. Bansal is AWESOME and has an artistic vision, welcomes you with open arms, and answers all questions and is very honest!!! After surgery Dr. Bansal continues to be the same character (this is important) and makes you feel safe and not alone!!!!!!! Going forward I will continue to do more procedures here because I have a lot of trust that AWESOME and OUTSTANDING work will be done here!!! Patience is a virtue and if you want people to take time with your mind, body and soul then you also must have patience!! Quality work takes time and I got that here with Elite MD. I hope this review helps anyone out there looking to get that quality work done (speaking from the bottom of my heart)!!! FYI I'm a registered nurse in the tri-valley area and I know about quality care!!!SHOUT OUT to Dr.Bansal, Rikki (nurse practitioner), Ivy RN, Ray surgical Tech, Juliette coordinador and Marcel!!! Really SHOUT OUT to all staff including the gals that answer the phone, everyone is so nice. Thank you all sooo much!! Not saying bye just yet LOL!!!"

"I went Elite MD about three months ago for a tummy tuck consult. Vanessa my consultant was amazing, she was great in helping decide what procedure was best. I had told her I want it done fairly quickly before summer and even though Dr. Bansal was booked through until October she did everything she could to get me into surgery six weeks after my first appointment. Throughout the entire process she was in contact with me sometimes even late into the evening calling me back and emailing me.Once my date was set I meet with one of the surgical technicians Ray. I am so happy Ray was my surgical technician, he is probably one of my favorite people in the whole world and I would never want to work with anyone else. Ray made himself so available because I constantly had questions for him. Working with him has been an absolute joy in my life.Dr. Bansal has to be the most informative and energetic doctors I have ever met. I don't think I have ever met someone that loves what they do as much as he does. Ever time I have met with him has been educational and exciting. The work he did on me was so good that when the swelling went down and the bandages came off so I could finally see the results I cried. He is truly an artist and I will be going back to him for any further work as well as recommending him to friends and family. Rickie was working along side Dr. Bansal as the nurse practitioner and she was amazing. She really had a lot to put up with with me and she was so nice about it.Ivy was my on call nurse who helped me while I was at home and at the clinic she was very patient with me because I think I called her at least every day for the first week asking about every little pain or twitch I was having.Over all everyone that works at Elite MD was amazing and very helpful and informative. I would never recommend any place else. I have had plastic surgery before elsewhere and Elite MD is by far the best I have ever seen!"

"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!"

"I had a wonderful experience at Elite MD Spa. I originally heard about them from an ad on TV. I’d been thinking about Lipo, so I called and scheduled a consult. Never once was I made to feel rushed or pushed into anything. We discussed many options, I felt I was given all the information I needed to make an informed decision. I thought about a tummy tuck, but did go with Lipo. I want to give a call out to several people there who went out of their way to make me feel welcome and special. From Dr. Geers, to Trish and Ricki You are all special people, and I thank you for all of your time and help. What a transformation that you made possible.Thank you! :)"

"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. :)"

"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"
"My Boss got tummy tuck, sculpting and mini face lift. The results plus the professionalism of ALL STAFF was truly amazing!"
"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."

Every time I go into this office everyone is so friendly and they make you feel like you'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!"
"I went to Elite MD to discuss liposuction. I was very overweight growing up and had lost over 100 pounds and have kept it off for over 20 years. I work out regularly and eat decently but couldn't shed that excess skin and fat from being heavy for so long. Meeting with Dr. Bansal he gave me his opinion and thought a tummy tuck with liposuction would best solve my issues. He spent a good hour with me going over the pros and cons of each as well as what could be expected from recovery to results. He explained that he was only one third of the results, I was another third and the universe was the last third. We also went over every aspect of the surgery and what he would do. I thought about it and agreed it was the best solution for me. I went through the surgery in August 2016. From the beginning, I was thrilled with the result, He delivered on every promise and fulfilled his third of the deal 110%. I am now three months out and I am still over the moon with my result. Everyday that I get dressed, I thank him for the incredible work he did. I would recommend Dr. Bansal without pause to anyone that I know. He is a true professional and an expert at his craft."

"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!!!"

"Working with Dr. Bansal is one of the best decisions I've ever made. I am a very happy customer. I cannot tell my story without sounding like an infomercial, but I will try.My journey started over 24 years ago with my first child being born by C-section and few years later having a second child which destroyed my abdominal area. Since 1995, I've struggled to lose weight and get in shape; with no real success, because of the damaged nerves in my lower abdomin. Try as hard as I might the excess, loose skin would never change. In 2005 I was told that my only option was a tummy tuck, but I wasn't sure about it. Fast forward 11 years, I've lost about 18 pounds (178lbs) and dropped to a size 10, but that darn flap of skin is still with me. I saw an ad on TV for Elite MD and called for a free consultation; best decision I could have made. Though I lost 2 sizes on my own, and looked good in the right outfit, I was a sloppy jelly roll. My stomach was lumpy and loose and it was very uncomfortable to wear anything besides leggings. I looked like a 46 year old mother with no time for the gym, yet I spent 3-4 a week at the gym. Dr. Bansal created a. new me, I now look like a woman who spends days owe week at the gym.i had a tummy tuck, flank lipo and contouring, but from the new look of me you'd think that I went in for a complete makeover. The side effect of my procedure and the after care by his team has caused me to loose and additional 13 pounds! The almost instant transformation is so profound that no matter where I go, people stop and stare. I need to buy all new clothes, because my total weight loss from the process is and astounding 25 pounds. Please note that all I wanted was to remove the gross excess skin, that would have been enough. Dr. Bansal transformed my body, gave me more confidence and transformed my overall life. I feel free, I feel beautiful, and most of all I feel like I can go anywhere and do anything without feeling like I am not good enough!Dr. Bansal is my personal Van Gough; and I am one of his living pieces of art! I am forever greatful!"

"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. Hence why Americans die of Stroke, Heart Attacks, and Cancer at an alarming rate.As far as the fees go. This is a professional medical concern with Dr. Bensal being a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who hails from University of Pennsylvania. As my father once said:YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FORI would not hesitate to recommend Elite MD to any of my family member or friends.Any of the negative reviews you may encounter on Yelp take with "a grain of salt". I am just an average guy who was seeking help with a weight and fact issue. I am not in any way compensated for this review. And I can be 100% certain that the procedure I had likely added 10-15 years onto my life. That being said everyone has a viewpoint, but be sure that those you see here on Yelp are not from people who 1- never even got as far as getting work done and 2- Are so dissatisfied with their lives and how they look that they are transferring that negativity to their opinion of Elite MD.Richard Gray"

"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."
"Tummy Tuck & Lipo to Flank&bra-line- Part 2 of my Transformation Journey - Danville, CA - For years I've wanted a Tummy Tuck. In 2002, I made the mistake of having liposuction to the tummy and flank area because I wasn't educated enough and, the PS wasn't skilled enough to tell me that I was a candidate for tummy tuck instead. 10 years foward and I'll be having my TT surgery August 7th, 2012. I'm a proud mother of 3 daughters - giving birth to two and one being my daughter through marriage so I only had two births but the last took a serious toll on my body. I've hated my mid-section for far too long and I MUST say "bye" to the UGLY buldge. I've raised my children, now 20, 20 and 15 years old, dedicated16 years of marriage to my husband, worked full-time, attending school part-time, currently running a home-based travel business SO now it's time to DO-ME!. Pictures will be posted. BREAST REDUCTION On June 18th I had a breast reduction (pictures and review posted on this site) and I'm very pleased.Updated on 5 Aug 2012:When I decided to share my tummy tuck with everyone, I'd made the decision to NOT post pics before my tummy tuck (August 7th 2012) BUT I've changed my mind,,,,,,so,,,,,please see my pics for your own motivation to have a TT procedure if you look like me and have been thinking about getting it done. Many people tell me "you don't need that" " you look fine" "why spend your money?" first of all it's exactly that,,,,,my money and my body. I've hidden my stomach so well that no one really knows what I look like without clothing, spanks, holding the tummy in etc..... I'm so anxious and can't wait. I just hope that the results give me a good jump-start and better motivation on my goal to be more fit. Starting tomorrow I have to shower with Hibiclens soap. I've already started taking the Arnica and Bromelain three times a day. Tomorrow I'll start drinking Mix 1 all-natural protein shake for a better healing process. Thanks for reading my story!Updated on 6 Aug 2012:Day Before Surgery!!I'm feeling anxious mixed with many other emotions I can't express. I continue to look at my tummy all day because I can't believe after all these years, finally my extra "pillow" will be cut off. The Surgery Center called me today telling me what time they need me at the facility and what time my surgery will be. I'll have to be there at 7AM,,,,I wonder if I'll get any sleep tonight,,,hmmmm. Happy Healing ladiesUpdated on 8 Aug 2012:1 Day Post-opToday is August 8th and I"m doing just fine. I was so afraid that I would be in pain but I'm NOT. The only time I feel pain is when I'm getting out of bed, or off my couch, other than that the only time I was in tears was when I woke from the surgery. It feels as if I did 1000 reps on my Ab-Slider or something. My breast reduction brought me more pain than the tummy tuck which was totally unexpected.Today I see my PS and will get the chance to see my tummy for the first time. I"m SO nervous thinking I will hate, hate the scar but I'll try to think positive. If the tummy don't look too bad I'll post pics.Updated on 8 Aug 2012:Saw my tummy today and although it's very, very swollen I like the outcome. I'm hating the drains but I think they'll be in for almost two weeks.Updated on 13 Aug 2012:Today I'm 6 days post op and noticed the swelling went down just a little. I posted my pictures ladies let me know what you think. I'm happy with my results but maybe it's because I'm excited there's no rolls lol,,,,,others might think I still look a HOT MESS!Updated on 7 Sep 2012:I'm now four weeks post op and can't believe how fast the time went. The issue that I'm having is the swelling and wearing the uncomfortable spanx. I still wear the CG during the day and night. I'm now starting scar therapy but so far its dark in color.Updated on 25 Oct 2012:Almost 3 mos post op and very pleased. I'm now exercising my abs everyday and it's really encouraging to see actual muscles!!Happy Healing!"
"I went to Elite MD after interviewing 2 other surgeons. Dr Bansal was very easy to talk to and showed me different procedures that I could choose from to benefit me! I decided to have the extended tummy tuck and lipo. I had my procedure on 1/31/2011. The staff was so caring and Dr Bansal called to make sure I was doing ok. I had appointments set up for 2 days after surgery,then 7 days after, ect. They truly care! The best part of all I LOOK FANTASTIC!!!! I am so shocked on how great I look and feel! My husband was scared for me to have surgery and he is wowed!!! I have recommended Dr Bansal to all my friends. THANKYOU DR BANSAL!!!!!!!!"
