Microneedling in Danville, CA
What is Microneedling?
If over-the-counter skin care products aren’t delivering the results you're after, but surgery feels too invasive, consider minimally invasive options like microneedling to rejuvenate your skin. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Vivek Bansal offers microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) at his Danville, CA office. This treatment involves using fine-gauge needles to create micro-injuries in targeted areas, stimulating your body's natural production of collagen and elastin — key elements for a healthier, more youthful complexion. Microneedling can be combined with other treatments, such as serums or platelet-rich plasma (PRP), to help reduce the appearance of scars, large pores, and stretch marks. Schedule a consultation at Elite MD to learn more about microneedling and create a personalized treatment plan to address your skin's unique needs.
How is Microneedling Performed?
Microneedling treatments are conducted in our office procedure rooms and typically take around 30 – 60 minutes. For comfort, a numbing cream or local anesthesia can be applied, though most patients report minimal to no discomfort during the procedure. The skin is thoroughly cleansed before the microneedling device is passed evenly across the treatment area. Afterward, we may apply a topical treatment, such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or a vitamin-rich serum, to help nutrients absorb more deeply into the skin. Finally, a moisturizer tailored to your skin type is gently massaged in, followed by sunscreen, as your skin will be more sensitive post-treatment.

I had Vaser Lipo on 2/25/25 and I had a great experience. The money i paid for is a worth. I got the result Imwanting for since I gave birth frommy one and only daughter. I will not the investment and effort that I'd started. Kudos to all Doctors and staffs from Elite MD who helped reach this journey of mine.
Worth Spending - I did vasor lipo treatment on my abdominal area, and I pretty like the result. With all the tx plan created by Dr B, it worked well and Im almost reach my goal. For only 7 weeks, its a big difference from what I looked before the procedure. I follow their 1/3 rule and now i also lose 13lbs in just 7 weeks. Thanks to Dr D as well and the rest of the team. Your investment will be worth if you follow the treatment plan. Kudos to Elite MD.
HAPPY HAPPY...I'm almost 70 years young and 6 months ago I had my first consultation at ELITE MD to talk about having a liposuction. I was greetedby a very happy staff and Dr. Bansal was very welcoming. I asked him if I was a candidate for a procedure and he said there was no problem, explained the steps of the procedure. He told me all about the pre op instructions which already Trisha had informed me so in a way they are all in the same page making sure their patients are well informed. I Felt very comfortable in their care.Dr. Bansal and Dr. Desvigne really know their art because that's what they do real sculptures very knowledgeable surgeons.I'm very pleased with my new me. And still having follow up appointments because they want to make sure I'm healing accordingly. I'm very happy and satisfied. Thank you ELITE MD.
Dr. Bansal and his entire staff are incredible. I am a male, 75 yr.old, six month post laser liposuction on my stomach, chest and flanks. I am more than satisfied. Dr. Bansel and his administrative assistant, Trisha, made sure I understood the issues and risks of the surgery. He went so far as to contact and speak with my cardiologist. You also get counseled on diet, exercise, etc. Six months down the road he and his staff are still following me. My results are (in my eyes) incredible. If you are considering laser liposuction, I would whole heartedly recommend you get a consult with Dr. Bansel or one of his other physicians.

Microneedling FAQ
How much does microneedling cost?
During your consultation, our team will perform a detailed skin analysis and create a customized treatment plan based on your goals. Once your plan is outlined, we'll review the costs and explain the entire procedure. We frequently offer specials on skin treatment packages, so be sure to ask about our current promotions during your visit.
What exactly is microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a nonsurgical treatment designed to rejuvenate and tighten the skin. As we age, collagen production naturally decreases, leading to thinner, less elastic skin. Microneedling creates tiny micro-injuries in the skin, triggering your body's natural healing response. This stimulates collagen production and new cell growth, resulting in a smoother, firmer, and more radiant complexion once the skin heals.
Can microneedling be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Microneedling creates micro-channels in the skin, which enhance the absorption and effectiveness of other treatments. That's why it's often combined with serums or platelet-rich plasma (PRP), commonly known as the "vampire facial." During your consultation, we'll discuss your skincare goals and recommend any complementary treatments that may boost your results.
How many microneedling sessions will I need?
Most patients benefit from a series of 3 to 6 sessions, depending on their skin condition and desired results. Treatments are typically spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. We'll evaluate your skin during your initial visit and suggest a plan tailored to your needs. Once your desired results are achieved, we generally recommend twice-yearly maintenance sessions to preserve your improvements.
Is microneedling safe for everyone?
For the most part, microneedling is appropriate for all skin tones and types. Skin injuries created by microneedling are so minor that there are rarely side effects after the treatment. Microneedling can be applied to most skin areas, including the arms, face, neck, thighs, chest, and lower legs. Microneedling is not recommended if you've been on Accutane recently, have herpes simplex, an open wound, or an active skin infection. Additionally, you might not be a candidate for microneedling if you're pregnant, nursing, or undergoing radiation treatments.
