Dr. Devgan Featured on Dr. Anthony Youn's Holistic Plastic Surgery Show

Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Anthony Youn’s podcast, “The Holistic Plastic Surgery Show” features both conventional and alternative health experts in the holistic health and beauty industries to discuss the newest anti-aging practices, tips to lose weight and feel great, and profound insights into the state of medicine today. He recently had Dr. Devgan on his show to discuss noninvasive plastic surgery procedures.

Dr. Youn and Dr. Devgan discuss the upward trend in noninvasive procedures, specifically facial contouring and optimization with injectable fillers. Dr. Devgan believes that the nonsurgical alternatives of cosmetic enhancement are gaining popularity because there’s fewer stigmas around them. Not only that, but there is less downtime, expense, scarring, risk, and commitment.

Dr. Devgan also attributes the rise of noninvasive plastic surgery to a new ideal of beauty. “I think that we’re sort of entering a new era, where people are wanting to look like the best version of themselves, rather than like someone else, so people don’t necessarily want brand new, major transformation. They may just want a slightly optimized alteration of a feature they already like so-so, but they want to like even better.” Find the full interview here.

"How Subtle Lip Injections Can Transform Your Entire Face" - Dr. Devgan Offers Expertise to The Zoe Report

Lauren Caruso of The Zoe Report recently published an article entitled “How Subtle Lip Injections Can Transform Your Entire Face,” where she shares her first-time experience with lip injections. Caruso reached out to Dr. Devgan regarding her thoughts on the procedure, as well as the cultural shift surrounding cosmetic optimization.

The general perception of cosmetic alteration - or “optimization” as Dr. Devgan calls it - has evolved from previous years, as current patients have moved away from the idea that bigger is better. Dr. Devgan’s personal aesthetic has always been on the subtle side, as she has prefers to highlight those features her patients already find beautiful about themselves. She adds “human beings are programmed to notice discrepancies as small as one millimeter, so something as subtle as a little volume can completely change the way facial beauty is received.”

The article continues to discuss the variety of FDA-approved products available for the lips - or “paints on a palette” as Dr. Devgan calls them -and how different products can be used to do different things, i.e softening, plumping, or creating more structure. Additionally, inspiration photos can be a big help for doctors to understand their patients’ desired outcome. Read the full article here.

Dr. Devgan outlines a plan to bolster the female presence in the aesthetic industry: “The first step should involve giving more visibility to the female leaders in the field..Help create a culture of mentorship where the older generation helps the younger generation, male or female across all demographics, to be better, more ethical and safer practitioners. While we are all very savvy and have gone through medical school, the business side of running an actual functioning practice is still a little bit elusive.” Read the full article here.
