Dr. Devgan; The Expert in Labiaplasties

Labiaplasty (or cosmetic rejuvenation of the female genitalia) is one of the most popular procedures in Dr. Devgan's New York City plastic surgery private practice. 

Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure designed to make the female genital area more aesthetic and comfortable. Women seek labiaplasty because they are unhappy with the way their private parts look, or because they are uncomfortable with friction caused by exercising, sexual intercourse, or wearing fitted clothes. Labiaplasty can address the inner labia (labia minora), the outer labia (labia majora), the clitoral hood, or any combination of those areas. Atrophy or sagging of the labia majora can also be addressed with filler or fat grafting.

Labiaplasty is done under local anesthesia with or without light sedation and the surgery itself typically takes under 1 hour. 

There are two ways of going about a labiaplasty; the edge technique or the wedge technique. Dr. Devgan is well-versed in both techniques, however, the wedge technique is preferred for many reasons. The wedge technique leaves a buried scar that is less noticeable and leaves the external genitalia with a smooth contour. Swelling, when using the wedge technique, resolves more quickly that when using the Edge technique.

After surgery, patients are given a maxi pad with ointment to wear. Patients are advised to keep their pelvis elevated with one to two pillows and to ice the area to reduce swelling. 

80% of the final surgical result are seen at 1 month after surgery and 90% after 6 weeks, although it takes a full 6 months for all swelling to completely dissipate.

The Double Chin Dilemma: Dr. Devgan featured on BeachBody.com

There are thousands of people who are self-conscious about the so-called ‘double-chin.’ A double-chin occurs when there is excess fat surrounding the lower third of the face and neck area. When this fat accumulates, it creates the look of a double-chin, especially when looking at a downward angle or from a side profile.

In BeachBody article written by Adam Bible, Dr. Devgan explains the specifics of a double-chin and the different options available for those who seek to reduce it. There are three main ways to address a double chin, or accumulation of excess fat of the neck: Kybella (injection of deoxycholic acid to permanently dissolve fat), submental liposuction (a minimally invasive surgery to suction out excess fat), and surgical neck lift (a larger surgery that addresses excess skin as well as excess fat).

Dr. Devgan explains that “The single most common reason for someone to have a double chin is a genetic predisposition to storing fat in the submentum, or the area under the chin. This means that a person’s age, weight, and physique matter less than his or her genetic tendencies.”

For this reason, many seek the help of a plastic surgeon to solve this issue that may set them back in their daily life. Dr. Devgan states that many men and women come into her practice to learn more about the options that are available, and so many are pleased with the results, whether they choose Kybella injections, submental liposuction, or a surgical neck lift.
