Dramatic Change
After losing 90 pounds, I had a large amount of hanging flesh under my chin. The staff at Reviance® was incredibly supportive and committed to help me make the reflection in the mirror match with my new self image. Ruby was amazing in the working out ways for the financing to work. Dr. Banthia was so clear on the vision he had for my transformation, he wanted to do everything to make this a success. Mary was there every step of the way.

Exceeded Expectations
I didn’t completely buy it that turkey chin would completely go away. The procedure was just as it was disclosed and I am amazed with results. I also underestimated how much better I would feel about myself and appearance. It really has made a difference in my self-confidence.
J.A. 4/26/2012
I was really worried at first. But everyone was so caring and professional they took all my worries away. I love everything that was done. The whole staff was just amazing. I would do it all over again.
D. H. 4/10/2012
All came out the way I expected or better-staff and Doc were all great!
M.M. 4/17/2012
Dr. Banthia and the entire staff have been wonderful. I was very comfortable being in their able hands and was confident of their competence. The Pre-op information and explanation were a big factor in how I felt. Post-op I was well cared for and was given realistic expectations which I felt were exceeded.

Laser Liposuction
I can’t stop looking myself in the mirror! My lipo laser treatment removed fat on my abdomen that I’ve had since my teenage years and nothing would get rid of it. The recovery was fast and I started seeing results after one week. I am beyond pleased with the results. The Dr. and staff at Reviance® are great. At my post-op appointment two months after the surgery everyone was so genuinely happy for me, which made me feel even better.

The Very Best
A caring doctor and staff. Dr. Banthia is very conscious and caring and most of all skilled. He is a perfectionist! I’d recommend him to everyone! Great results.

I had abdominal lipo preformed by Dr. Banthia exactly one week ago. The procedure itself was surprisingly painless and seemed to go by very quickly. Everything was explained to me ahead of time so I know exactly what to expect. It was much easier than it sounded. The results after only one week have been phenomenal. There was quite a bit of swelling (which I expected) for only the first few days. The pain was minimal and didn’t really even want pain medication. After 3 or 4 days, the swelling decreased drastically. I can already see what the results are going to be after only one week, the difference is huge. I couldn’t be happy and can’t wait to see what it looks like next week.

My experience with Reviance® and Dr. Banthia were so awesome. I felt very important and felt the doctor genuinely cared. I have had other procedures done elsewhere but his work was the most gratifying and got the best results from. I would tell anyone who is interested in procedures to come see Dr. Banthia.
R.P. 6/14/2011
I truly enjoyed my experience at Reviance®. The staff was courteous and kind and Dr. Banthia was really attentive to my surgery needs. From the beginning I was fearful and doubtful about gong through the procedure but with the help of everyone’s kindness, I finally decided to go through with what must be the best thing I’ve done for myself. They never forced or enticed me to decide to do it, and this meant a lot to me.
N.K. 6/21/2011

V. M. 6/24/2011
I am 38 and had the ultra mini lift by Dr. Banthia. My family tends to get “turkey neck” over time so I decided to address it early. I am at 3 weeks post-op and still have some swelling. I expect I will be giving this procedure 5 out of 5 when completely healed. The rest of the family is eager to see the result and to see if I can beat biology. I already see an amazing result and would definitely recommend Dr. Banthia.
J.M. 6/24/2011
The treatment was great! Diana was very nice and did a good job. There was no pain at all. I’ll be back again for sure.
M. H. 6/24/2011

S.J. 6/24/2011
The experience has been great! I have been coming here for 3 years and all of them have been great!
R.M. 6/27/2011
Kiyun is very caring and knowledgeable, providing information about products as needed in a non-pushy way. Her dermabrasion treatment was just right-exfoliating without irritating through the use of high quality products with attention to detail and a nurturing approach.
L. D. 6/28/2011
I’ve been coming to Reviance® over a few years to get treatments for my facial scars and hair removal. Reviance® has helped me with my problem areas a lot. I like the overall atmosphere here and the staff is very friendly. I’m happy they’ve added aesthetics services here. I will continue to come here for my beauty needs. Thanks Reviance®.
J.O. 7/5/2011
The laser and botox treatments I have received have been very successful and make me feel much younger just by looking younger. The doctor, nurses, and office staff have been very caring and professional. Dr. Banthia’s expertise in laser treatment application for my skin has resulted in treatment specific to my needs. I always feel welcomed in the office.
M.L. 7/6/2011
Everyone is very friendly and helpful. I am so glad I picked Reviance® for my skin care needs.
J.B. 7/8/2011
I have been coming to Reviance® for some time for various treatments. Today, I thoroughly enjoyed a microdermabrasion Rx via Kiyun as prior person, Emily, had moved. Kiyun’s approach was different from prior Rx, most relaxing, skin simply glowing after. Kiyun is verbally pleasant regarding different types of mask etc, soft spoken and performed an excellent job overall. Thank you.
S.P. 7/11/2011
Dr. Banthia and his staff are very nice and he is concerned about you. He did a follow-up call the same day to check to see if everything was ok. He also gives you his personal cell number just incase you need to be in touch with him.
H.T. 7/12/2011
I had two ultra mini lift by Dr. Banthia. The results are amazing. I think the before and after pictures make me look like a different person… a younger person.
J.M. 7/19/2011
I had a very good experience. The staff and Dr. Banthia all treated me like family. We had laughs and jokes during my face lift. They made it all seem easier in the beginning with the swelling. It was the best money I have ever spent.

“Best in San Mateo”
After my juvederm treatment from Dr. Banthia, my before and after were unbelievable. I look better then I would after a 2 week stay at a 4-star spa. He treated my nasal folds and sags under my eyes. I have had Dr. Banthia treat me over 2 years and have had such great results. He is careful to make sure to give me a natural “look.”
L.T. 8/3/2011
Reviance® was excellent and very thorough. The staff was very professional and nice.

One year later/Laser liposuction
My experience with Dr. Banthia was over and above positive. I had very realistic expectations and the results were even better than I expected. I recovered very quickly, felt “normal” in a day and could tell the difference as soon as I was home. Dr. Banthia is very professional, thoughtful, and kind and I felt I was perfectly cared after treatment.
K.F. 8/11/2011
Great front desk representative! Great doctor! Thank you!
L.B. 8/22/2011
I am very happy with the results I got at Reviance® in San Mateo. I came here to repair my nose after a minor accident. I expected the treatment to be long, painful and expensive. Instead, I was offered a filling which had even better results and was less expensive. I also went through a laser treatment to reduce acne scars and the results were really good too. I am very happy with Reviance® in San Mateo. Dr. Banthia has done a terrific job and I could not ask for better results.
A.G. 8/23/2011

Testimonial: For years I have disliked how my neck was showing the process. Finally when two of friends had the neck & face lift, I couldn’t live with my situations any longer. I am amazed how well everything went. It is now just a week later and I am ready to return to work. There was minimal discomfort after the procedure and I healed much faster than I thought possible. I also had more done that my friends, I included the eyes and laser treatment and I am so happy I did it all at one time.
