Tummy Tuck in Danville, CA
What Is A Tummy Tuck?
Many adults find sagging skin and stubborn fat around the abdomen frustratingly resistant to diet and exercise. Common culprits include pregnancy, weight loss, and aging, often making it difficult to achieve a slim, toned stomach. At Elite MD in Danville, CA, Dr. Vivek Bansal offers tailored body contouring solutions, including tummy tuck surgery and its less invasive counterpart, the mini tummy tuck. These procedures are adapted depending on the extent of excess skin and fat. Whether it's through a full abdominoplasty or a mini tummy tuck, patients can enjoy a sculpted abdomen, a redefined physique, and a boost in confidence. To discover how these surgeries can eliminate excess skin and fat while tightening abdominal muscles, we invite you to schedule a consultation with us.
How Is A Tummy Tuck Performed?
Abdominoplasty, performed under general anesthesia, offers a range of surgical options customized by Dr. Bansal to meet each patient's specific requirements. The extent of excess skin dictates the incision size, ranging from an extended tummy tuck with a hip-to-hip incision for those with significant skin laxity to a mini tummy tuck for those with minimal skin wrinkling. Both procedures at Elite MD offer skin tightening and sculpting with the length and visibility of scars varying according to the technique employed. A mini tummy tuck focuses on the area beneath the belly button, involving a smaller incision and often incorporating liposuction to remove excess fat. The remaining skin is tightened, resulting in a toned, flat abdomen. Typically, the belly button remains unaltered, and any scarring is discreet, easily hidden under swimwear or underwear.
What Are the Benefits of A Tummy Tuck?
A tummy tuck can be a good surgical treatment for individuals in the Danville, CA area who want to treat stomach fat, acquire a more toned look, and match their shape to their fitness levels. This procedure done at Elite MD provides a few of these perks:

Elite MD Reviews
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.
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
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.
Very pleased with the outcome of the procedure - 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! Helen
