Dr. Bansal and Elite MD Changed my Life. Don't Look Anywhere Else!
Review
I had such an amazing experience with Dr. Bansal and his team that I recommend them to everyone!
I'm 37, 5'6'', 140 lbs, mom of two. My sweet babies absolutely destroyed my body, and while I love them dearly it was also very depressing to look in the mirror and see a stranger. My breasts had the consistency of pancake batter on a skillet, and even though I reached my pre-baby weight with diet and exercise I still looked 4 months pregnant. In general I'm not one to care too much about how I look, but I just wanted my old self back.
I went through RealSelf to find doctors in my area who offered free consultations, just to get a lot of different opinions. Some people told me I needed implants; some people said implants were terrible; some people said I should only transfer fat to one breast to even them out. It was a bit of a nightmare.
Thankfully I was able to speak with Vanessa at Elite MD, who ultimately changed my life. We texted back and forth so much about my struggles and goals, I felt like she really listened to me I fought for what I needed, not what would get them more money. I would say she saved me.
When I finally got to have a consultation with Dr. Bansal, he was so honest and open with me and what was possible. I love that he's a teacher and gets a flat salary there, so there really is no incentive for him to upsell patients. He tells you the truth about what you need (and don't need) to meet your goals. If you want big implants, he can advise you on what's best; if you want a more natural look, he can educate you on fat transfer and what that entails. He doesn't care what procedure you get, as long as it's what YOU want. In my case, he took my interests in consideration and advised me on a plan that I am so happy with. For me, I prefer a more natural look and didn't want a ton of volume, so he suggested fat transfer instead of implants. And if I want more volume, I can always transfer more another time! I ultimately decided on a tummy tuck with fat transfer to the breasts and an anchor breast lift. Dr. Bansal did an amazing job with my severe 6'' diastasis recti hole between my abs that my sweet son gave me during pregnancy.
What really sets Elite MD apart is their comprehensive care plan. It's not just a surgery and then you never see them again. I truly feel like they're part of my family and would go to them for more aesthetic procedures in the future even though they're an hour from my house. They take care of you after surgery and make sure that you're eating correctly to optimize your results. They teach you important lifestyle changes that not only make you look good, but increase energy and overall health in general. I would go to them again and again for anything!
One important aspect of their care plan is the lymphatic massages they provide post-surgery. And I get it, lymphatic massages sound kind of useless. I thought they were silly at first but I wanted to try it to see if it really helped my recovery. And I was COMPLETELY blown away. Their post-op specialist, Roxanna, is an absolute gem. She's caring, professional, and extremely knowledgeable about how to maximize your results and reduce pain. During one of her massages I could literally feel and hear my water retention drain through my lymphatic system. I always have to pee so much afterwards (sometimes mid-session!) because she reduces all the fluid buildup and it needs to go somewhere! I can actually see, feel, and measure the difference in my body before and after sessions. I am a firm believer in lymphatic massages now because of Roxanna's superb skill!
I know this is long, so if you skipped to the end all you need to know is that Dr. Bansal and the staff at Elite MD is the best. Full stop. You don't need to look anywhere else. I feel truly blessed that I found them and have made them part of my life! People always ask me if I would do it again, and every time I answer "100% absolutely yes", and that's all because of Dr. Bansal and Elite MD.
