Allure includes Dr. Devgan as a medical expert to touch on the topic of brow pinching

Allure has recently featured Dr. Devgan to address one of the latest in cosmetic treatments. Brow pinching has been coined one of the latest in cosmetic treatments and consists of a 10-minute facial massage that targets key pressure points around the eye and brow area to help reduce puffiness. Although Dr. Devgan does not offer this treatment at her practice, she is a board-certified plastic surgeon and has the answer to dark under eye circles, puffiness, and fine lines. 

Usually done by a massage therapist, aesthetician, or holistic healer, brow pinching is a 10-minute facial massage that “targets key pressure points around the eye and brow area to reduce puffiness and give the skin around the eye area a lift.” While it sounds intriguing, Dr. Devgan explains how “from a medical standpoint, there are no long-term benefits of brow pinching.” Something like a botox brow lift or a tear trough augmentation would be more beneficial and long-lasting to treat the periorbital area. Dr. Devgan advises to “be cautious of excessive touching and forced movement around such sensitive areas” as it can “actually increase the likelihood of fine lines, broken capillaries, and hyperpigmentation.”
