Skin Rejuvenation and Resurfacing

35 Photos18 Reviews378 Q&A2 Offers
Nonsurgical skin rejuvenation therapies can go a long way toward transforming your complexion. At my Danville practice, I offer a wide range of effective options, from microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy), IPL, microdermabrasion, and chemical peels to laser skin resurfacing. “Light” laser resurfacing targets superficial lines, texture concerns, hyperpigmentation, and scarring with minimal downtime. “Deep” laser resurfacing penetrates more deeply into the skin to trigger collagen production and promote firmer, tighter skin with less noticeable wrinkles. During a consultation, we’ll discuss your skin rejuvenation goals, I’ll recommend the best options, and we will align on a customized treatment plan to give you fresher, younger-looking skin.

Fillers and Other Injectables

26 Photos13 Reviews238 Q&A2 Offers
I am known for my precise hand, artistic eye, and conservative approach to dermal fillers and neuromodulators, and I oversee all injectables treatments at my Danville practice. Fillers add volume and definition while softening wrinkles and folds in areas of the face like the lips, cheeks, and chin. Hyaluronic acid fillers—namely Juvéderm, Restylane, and Belotero—are popular because they’re made from a naturally occurring substance that slowly absorbs over time. I also offer Bellafill, Radiesse, and Sculptra, which have ingredients like collagen, calcium, and poly-l-lactic acid, for longer-lasting results. Neuromodulators such as Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin all contain a lab-purified neurotoxin, which temporarily relaxes muscles to reduce wrinkles. When administered carefully, injectables can help address signs of aging and augment certain features to enhance natural beauty. Combined, they can create a “liquid facelift” effect.

Great Doctor That Looks at Health Holistically

My experience at Elite MD and with Dr.Bansal has been extraordinary! Dr. Bansal is an expert and has greatly helped me reduce the inflammation in my body and solidify the amazing results from my procedure. I've never met a doctor that has looked at my health holistically like Dr.Bansal and I see great improvement in all areas. He always keeps it honest and real, and I love that he tells me what I need and not just want I want to hear. I am 6 weeks post op with my smart Lipo and am loving every part of my experience from pre booking through post op. Highly recommend using Elite MD for your future needs.

Lip Fillers

Andreak0

My lips are my favorite - very symmetrical and juicy

I had a great experience when I had my lip, cheek filler and dysport injections. Crystal is amazing! she takes her time listening to your goal and achieve what you wanted to see in the mirror. She would do as you wish but would also suggest and give you practical options. I didn’t like that my face looks chubby now that I am older bec I am skinny so it doesn’t make sense to have chubby cheeks. I didn’t realize I’m a grinder until she pointed out why my jaw expanded. My years of grinding made my jaw grew wider hence the chubby face. She injected my masseter muscles and with that I will see contoured cheeks in a few weeks. (I already see minimal improvement btw) My lips are my favorite! It’s so sexy and juicy not lopsided, very symmetrical compared to the first lip injection I had at a clinic in San Ramon. Elite MD has a wonderful team of experts that will elevate your experience but I also highly recommend that you give her expertise a try!

Clinical trial participant dealing with hyperpigmentation/dark spots

have been a participant in Dr. Sonia's clinical trial for her skin treatment. This treatment specifically deals with hyperpigmentation/dark spots, other forms of discoloration in darker skin as well as acne. It's been almost 3 months and I am completely convinced that this is the ONLY, and I mean ONLY skin treatment that actual works for me. I'm over 40 and have been using retin A (prescription grade) off and on since 1992! I've tried different cleansers, creams, mask etc. I've even had "blue light" therapy for my acne. For my dark spots, I've tried skin lighteners such as cyspera and spent over $200. All have minimal results. However this product Doctor Sonia formulated has not only cleared my skin, it has soften my skin, minimized pore size and visibility and lighten the dark spots and discoloration from acne. The tinted primer and sunscreen is supposed to lighten dark spots and provide protection from UV rays. However I apply this primer before applying foundation and it works wonders. I'm not a regular when it comes to wearing make up of any kind but the tinted primer makes my foundation blend perfectly and evenly. Furthermore I don't deal with break outs as an after effect of wearing foundation. I honestly could type an entire essay as to how tremendously satisfied I am with my results. I look forward to this product becoming available for everyone who has faced skin challenges such as myself.

Samaya Acne & Pigmentation System

This new product I have been using has been life-changing I’ve been battling with hyperpigmentation acne and the ugly scars it has left behind from breakouts i’ve only been using this product for such a short amount of time and it’s cleared up pretty much all of my acne, it’s also knocking down the hyper pigmentation. I definitely will recommend to anybody that is dealing with acne problems to try this product.

Clinical Trial

I am currently in my first week of a clinical trial for hyperpigmention in/for people of color. So far the product has been great. NO itchiness, redness or peeling. There hasn't been any lightening yet but that's to be expected...its on the first week. I know it's a process but I'm so excited to be a part of this! I've gone to EliteMD for other things and everything they have done is just wonderful and with great results! Can't wait to up date all of you soon!
