What Is Laser Skin Resurfacing?
At Elite MD, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Vivek Bansal offers laser skin resurfacing using CO2 laser technology. This procedure uses CO2 laser energy to eliminate damaged and dead skin cells layer by layer. Typically addressing such skin flaws as scars, warts, and wrinkles, laser skin resurfacing is an effective treatment for those who are looking to get clear, soft, and younger-looking skin. For more information on laser skin resurfacing and how it can be customized to meet your needs, contact Dr. Bansal at his Danville, CA location to schedule a consultation.
How Is Laser Skin Resurfacing Performed?
Throughout your laser skin resurfacing treatment in Danville, CA, we'll have you relax in one of our comfortable treatment chairs while the CO2 laser handpiece is passed over your skin to target sections that need improvement. Using short pulses of light energy, small micro-injuries will be created within the skin, and the skin's natural healing process will begin. We'll apply an ointment and send you home once your treatment is complete.
What Can I Expect After Laser Resurfacing?
You can expect your skin to be red and irritated after your appointment, but this will subside in a few days. You'll notice your skin will start to peel over the next 3 – 5 days or longer for more intense treatments. Limit UV exposure as your skin is healing and avoid picking at your skin, no matter how itchy, to avoid scarring. After the peeling is complete, you can expect softer, clearer, healthier-looking skin.
What Are the Benefits of Laser Skin Resurfacing?
At Elite MD, we know that with time, your skin could turn dehydrated, dull, and lifeless. Using CO2 laser skin resurfacing technologies, we are able to provide our Danville, CA patients a chance for rejuvenated skin with an option that allows for several optimal upsides:
- Smoothing of patchy skin texture
- Reduced appearance of wrinkles and lines
- Minimization of pores
- Lowered appearance of scars and pigmentation problems

Elite MD Reviews
Danville Elite MD is a great location to get medical services, Face, Body and good skin care. The Staff are knowledgeable in all areas of services. Dr V Bansal and Dr Sonia are amazing medical experts in what they are trained to do. I had many years of discomfort with my health and body weight. I exercised, changed my diet to a clean protein diet. I cut all sodas and no all fried foods, yet I was not able to loose weight. My metabolism slowed down and I was experiencing lots of digestive issues. Drinking coffees made it worst. One day I was watching morning news and a commercial came on with Dr Sonia she explained a procedure that women should look into to remove stubborn fat that does not go away with exercise. I listened and made a decision to do my research and looked into scheduling a consultation. I was fortunate to talk with Vanessa the Director of Elite MD. We talked for hours , she answered all my questions about the procedure and what made it comfortable to know Vanessa had the procedure done. She went step by step what was going to take place. I felt confident to schedule my procedure.It has been 1 month now since I had my procedure completed. I am healing well, I am walking, bending sleeping better and eating Plant Base food. No red meats, chicken or bread. I have lost 15 Ibs and that stubborn fat is gone from by belly. My blood pressure is back to normal. I am not taking any medications for any health conditions. I don’t miss drinking coffee or sodas or regular milk. I drink herbal teas and green tea to remove any toxins in my body. I wanted to improve my over all health and this how I did it. I know for certain I am prolonging my life having done the procedure. I look forward to continue my good healthy life style, so I can be around for my future grand children. I am so happy, I chose Elite MD. Dr Bansal and his staff always say to me "we are family now" I feel like a very fortunate women
After long and hard consideration of cosmetic services, I finally felt comfortable enough to proceed with treatment. My husband had an amazing experience with Elite MD and during my visit with him at the office I got interested. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable about their craft, and I was impressed to find out that everyone there look refreshed and not "fake". I have always been afraid of looking too enhanced, but after talking to a provider I worked up my courage to get a treatment. I am so thrilled with the results and will be back for more. Elite MD exceeded my expectations with their impeccable level of service and willingness to listen to my needs. I look refreshed and my skin is glowing. I am so excited to have found my new place for all things skin care and cosmetic services. They also have an amazing surgical staff with whom I met several times. They are so dedicated to patient care and take good care of us each time we are in the clinic. My husband and I look forward to going here. The office is incredibly well staffed and patient care is their niche. Wonderful service and outstanding results!
* 3 months post procedure ** I am now 3 months post-op, and although I'm still in the early healing stages, I am happy with my results this far. I am so appreciative of how Dr.B set very realistic expectations from the start and how he gave me the tools to help set me up for the most successful outcome possible. One thing I kept reminding myself during the recovery is that he always reminded me of the 1/3 rule after my procedure. 1/3 of the outcome is based on the surgeons work, 1/3 is based on the patients postop care, and the last 1/3 is the universe and how your body responds to the procedure. This was great to remember during the healing process, and it kept me on track. I had a breast Aug with another PS a couple years ago, and I am still amazed how different EliteMd is. From their amazing family culture, maintaining good patient relationships, and their awesome bedside manner. I'm sure we can all agree that we typically only see the plastic surgeon once, maybe twice, if you're lucky. That is NOT how it is at EliteMD. I met with Dr.B before making my deposit, and he Zoom called me a week before my procedure. I then saw him the day of my procedure, and two times after at my post ops. This is unreal, considering how busy he and this practice are. When I first met Dr.B, I remember him telling me we are now family, and he truly followed through with his statement. I feel so comfortable talking to him and asking any questions I have regarding my results, and KNOWING he has my best interest at heart and truly wants me to be happy. This is irreplaceable. Another thing that is so different is ALL staff at this practice are so happy when you walk in the door. They make it a point to remember your name and are always so happy to see you. The management team is the sweetest, and they make it known that they truly care about your experience. I honestly look forward to my appointments here. Vanessa is truly amazing. She was there for me when I had questions throughout my healing, and it is such a great resource to have. One last thing I'd like to mention is how this is pretty much a one-stop shop, which is extremely helpful and convenient during the healing process. You can get your lymphatic drainage massages here (Linda, you are amazing), laser treatments, facials, and pretty much anything cosmetic related. I could go on and on about the amazing staff here. You all truly make the patient experience so amazing and unforgettable. Thank you, EliteMd

Who Is a Good Candidate for Laser Skin Resurfacing?
You have many factors to consider when choosing which kind of CO2 laser skin resurfacing treatment is right for your skin. CO2 laser skin resurfacing is designed for people who are unsatisfied with their skin's appearance. If you have sun-damaged skin, acne scars, age spots, wrinkles and fine lines, pigmentation, or redness issues, this procedure can help improve these complexion blemishes. Also, laser skin resurfacing works wonders for patients who have scaly patches, rough texture, or other irregularities. Laser skin resurfacing is not recommended if you have very dark skin or active acne outbreaks. Additionally, it is important to be aware that there is downtime associated with these laser treatments. Certain patients, depending on the condition of their skin, may need as much as 2 – 3 weeks to recover.

Laser Skin Resurfacing FAQ
How long does it take to see results from laser resurfacing?
Results from laser resurfacing can typically be seen within a few weeks as the skin heals and new layers emerge. However, full results may take several months to appear as collagen production continues to improve the skin's texture and tone.
Can laser resurfacing be combined with other treatments?
Yes, laser resurfacing can be combined with other cosmetic treatments to enhance overall results. Common combinations include dermal fillers, Botox, and IPL, which can address different aspects of skin aging and imperfections. Dr. Bansal will create a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and aesthetic goals during your consultation at Elite MD.
Are there any specific pre-treatment instructions for laser resurfacing?
Before undergoing laser resurfacing, it is important to follow specific pre-treatment instructions to ensure optimal results and reduce the risk of complications. These may include avoiding sun exposure, discontinuing certain skincare products, and refraining from smoking. Dr. Vivek Bansal and his team will provide detailed guidelines and recommendations to prepare your skin for the procedure.
How can I help my skin recover after a resurfacing treatment?
Dr. Bansal or someone on his staff will discuss how you can speed skin healing after a treatment. The most important rule is do not pick or peel your skin. This can lead to lasting damage including scars. You need to forgo all hair removal methods on the treated skin, which includes waxing, shaving, or depilatory creams. We will recommend cream to help soothe and heal treated areas.
How much does laser skin resurfacing cost?
The cost of laser skin resurfacing will depend on the type of treatment you choose. During your consultation, Dr. Bansal will understand your concerns and wants before discussing the different types of resurfacing. Then, he can help you decide on your resurfacing treatment and discuss costs. Elite MD regularly offers skin treatment specials and discounted packages, so ask for more information during your consultation.
What's the best type of resurfacing for me?
Dr. Bansal will help you choose which laser resurfacing treatment fits your needs and goals in your consultation. What treatment is best for you depends on your skin's health and condition, any skin concerns, and how deep you want your treatment to go. The length of recovery time may also be a deciding factor when choosing your treatment type. If you are unsure, it's better to try a lighter treatment then assess your results and adjust as needed for your next treatment.
