Earlier in the month, Dr. Devgan attended and led a panel at the RealSelf House of Modern Beauty Pop-Up in New York City. Not only is Dr. Devgan a board-certified plastic surgeon, but she is also the chief medical editor of RealSelf, the leading resource to research cosmetic treatments and connect with doctors. At the event, Dr. Devgan discussed elevating the cosmetic surgery conversation.
Dr. Devgan led the conversation by discussing how editorial coverage of cosmetic surgery has evolved from a speculation to a more open and honest discussion. Throughout her practice, Dr. Devgan has seen a wide variety of interests when it comes to trends in cosmetic surgery and now sees that lately people are going for a more natural look. We are living in a world where “duck lips” are out and subtle facial optimization is in. In other words, Dr. Devgan believes that subtle is the new dramatic. In addition to Dr. Devgan’s conversations, guests were also able to explore the world of medical aesthetics through cosmetic treatment demonstrations and experiences, visual installations and other thoughtful panel discussions.
In addition to her panel discussion, Dr. Devgan also performed a live on-stage demonstration for everyone to see her techniques in action. Facial injectables are one of Dr. Devgan’s many specialties and her technique is superb. Facial micro-optimization is Dr. Devgan’s technique for making many tiny millimeter-level changes to the features to improve global facial beauty and harmony— without making her patients look too obviously different.
