This week Violet Grey launched their latest products to pass the violet-code: Dr. Devgan’s Platinum Long Lash and Platinum Lip Plump. Along with the launch, the luxury, cosmetic retailer profiled Dr. Devgan as one of its celebrated female entrepreneurs and “industry game changer.”

The article highlights Dr. Devgan’s career, from her plastic surgery practice and luxury, medical-grade Scientific Beauty skincare line to her highly-rated Beauty Bosses podcast, all of which has culminated in her success as both a surgeon and mother. “I know beauty is a billion dollar industry and for so long it has been marginalized and kind of put on the periphery of important conversations as it pertains to women. We are living in a very powerful time where beauty can mean many different things to many different people. I like being able to empower other women and being a role model to young women growing up wondering if they can have it all: if they can be a mom and still run a successful practice,” she says.

Dr. Devgan’s Platinum Long Lash and Platinum Lip Plump are now available on violetgrey.com. For a full list of Dr. Devgan’s Scientific Beauty products, visit laradevganmd.com/shop.

"Lab Rat: First Time Lip Fillers" Dr. Devgan interviewed by Carrie Barber of Violet Grey

With Violet Grey’s launch of Dr. Devgan’s Platinum Lip Plump and Platinum Long Lash Serum this week, Dr. Devgan was interviewed by Carrie Barber, Senior Art Director of the luxury cosmetic retailer. After the Platinum Lip Plump exceeded Barber’s expectations (dubbing it “temporary fillers in a tube”), she made an appointment to see the doctor.

For someone considering fillers for the first time, Dr. Devgan expresses, “Think about what you are going for.. and find inspiration images as a starting point, which can be a helpful way to frame a conversation with your plastic surgeon.” She goes on to advise prospective patients to do their research, since injectable procedures can be performed by those with a wide variety of credentials.

Dr. Devgan has remained outspoken in her efforts to destigmatize the cosmetic industry, and concludes the interview by telling Barber, “For too long society has been telling women and men what we can and can't do. It's OK to work on your abs, color your hair, or get injectables if you want—as long as you are doing those things in a safe and responsible manner. Don't let people make you feel like you can't be a person of substance and also care about how you look.” Barber details her entire appointment, from consultation to final results, which can be read here.

"This New Microneedling Facial Might Replace the Vampire Facial" - Dr. Devgan's Gold Microinfusion Facial Featured on BRIT+CO

BRIT+CO recently published an article entitled “This New Microneedling Facial Might Replace the Vampire Facial” which highlights one of Dr. Devgan’s signature procedures, the Gold Microinfusion Facial.

“It’s an amped-up, medical-grade version of traditional microneedling with added special ingredients like Botox, hyaluronic acid fillers, and platelet rich plasma (PRP) to give the skin an extra glow,” Dr. Devgan describes. Dr. Devgan customizes each blend of ingredients, depending on the specific needs of the patient.

With the use of single-bore hollow needles, the blend (or “cocktail” as Devgan calls it) is injected into the dermal layer of the skin. “The microneedling itself generates collagen; the Botox shrinks the dermal elements, creating poreless-looking skin; the hyaluronic acid plumps the skin; and the PRP is rich in regenerative growth factors that ramp up stem cell activity, which boosts collagen and makes the skin look beautiful,” Devgan adds.

With noninvasive treatments like fillers and botox gaining popularity, patients have been hoping for nonsurgical alternatives for breast procedures. Dr. Devgan says, “..nonsurgical augmentations with saline or injectable fillers are extremely dangerous and not recommended. We do not understand how injectable fillers interact with breast tissue in the long run.”
