The Plum features Dr. Devgan on Procedures for the Nose, surgical and non-surgical options

Author Pamela Christiani writes about how the nose can change over time and one can become unhappy with those changes. Her obsession with nose jobs led her to Dr. Devgan, who performs both surgical and non-surgical rhinoplasties.

“‘It’s not that the nose is necessarily growing, but it may not be supported in the exact same way as when you were younger. Ligament structures can shift and cartilage can warp and change over time.’ Dr. Devgan stresses that even the tiniest of shifts in the face, millimeters in size, can be visible. The bottom line: signs of aging can occur anywhere on the face, and the nose is no exception.”

Dr. Devgan explains how she uses filler to provide optical illusions for the nose to balance out the overall shape and proportion. “This element of “try-before-you-buy” is popular now, in Dr. Devgan’s practice. “Many of my patients just prefer a less invasive approach,” she says. That said, “surgical rhinoplasty is a more powerful procedure that allows you to do more. You can remove tissue, shave down bone, and adjust cartilage, maneuvers that are not possible with injectables,” she stresses. A non-surgical nose job can be done in minutes with virtually no downtime.”

Dr. Devgan's Signature Gold Microinfusion Facial featured in PureWow

Beauty treatments can be found anywhere but there are certain unique treatments that can only be found in NYC. PureWow published an article that details 7 next-level beauty treatments that can only be found in the Big Apple. The article features Dr. Devgan’s signature gold microinfusion microneedling facial.

“Microneedling meets injectables in this facial that’s already won over celebrities like Bethenny Frankel. The Gold Microinfusion Microneedling Facial ($2,500), offered at the offices of Upper East Side plastic surgeon Dr. Lara Devgan, promises results that many describe as “glass-like” skin. By infusing tiny amounts of Botox and hyaluronic acid fillers through a special vial equipped with gold-plated needles (that’s the microneedling part), patients walk out with minimal downtime—generally just a little post-procedure redness—and maximum results. And in case you’re wondering, it’s nothing like full-on Botox injections: The topical application means smoother skin without the loss of muscle function.”

On Achieving Your Summer Body Goals- Dr. Devgan featured on Violet Grey

After the first day of summer’s recent debut, we’re all excited for the beach visits, hiking trips, and music festivals summer has to offer. Dr. Devgan, featured on Violet’s Grey’s new article “Summer Body Goals”, shares the latest tips on how you can stay looking your best.

“The body is becoming the real tell-all of your age and overall health fitness level”, says Dr. Devgan. Although filler is typically understood to accentuate facial contours, Dr. Devgan uses Sculptra, a filler that stimulates collagen production, to accentuate the body’s contours. Dr. Devgan states that Sculptra is “the best non-surgical way to improve the contour, fullness, perkiness, and texture of the buttocks and hips.”

The beauty of the latest minimally invasive treatments, such as Sculptra, is the minimal downtime and lasting results. Dr. Devgan states, “There’s no incision, no anesthesia, no large, visible scar; the things that held people back in the previous era of a major surgical overhaul have changed a lot.” Read the full article here

Violet Grey, featuring Dr. Devgan, on Individualized Beauty "Tweakments"

Violet Grey recently published an article, featuring Dr. Lara Devgan, in which “new customizable, non-invasive “tweakments”” are discussed. As the landscape of beauty and cosmetic procedures continues to evolve, we are moving away from looking “overdone” and focusing more on the individual.

“We’ve redefined what beauty means,” says Dr. Laura Devgan, a plastic and reconstructive surgeon in New York City and founder of luxury skin care line Dr. Devgan Scientific Beauty. “It’s less about being handed down an archaic and ill-fitting beauty standard from the cover of a magazine and more of a feeling and being the best version of yourself.”

The article goes into detail about this innovative individualized approach of subtle tweaks that make you look great without looking overdone and gives examples on different areas of treatment.

Neuromodulators are one way to tweak in order to soften lines. Dr. Devgan says that different brands work similarly to relax the muscles that cause wrinkles.

Infusion microneedling is ideal for glassy smooth skin. By damaging the skin ever so slightly, we are allowing the topical treatments to be better absorbed. “We used to use a solid needle to make little pricks in the skin and slather stuff on top, hoping it seeped in,” Dr. Devgan explains. “Now we’re using hollow-bore needles and a sterile glass vial to micro-inject a customized cocktail of substances into the dermis.” The “cocktail” can include everything from hyaluronic acid to plump skin, PRP (platelet-rich plasma, which would require a quick blood draw) to rejuvenate, and neuromodulators like Botox to shrink pores (by contracting piloerector muscles at the base of hair follicles, Dr. Devgan explains). “We’re injecting these things 600 microns deep into the dermis and it creates this beautiful, glassy, perfect-looking skin,” she adds. “If you imagine that skin is a fabric like linen, the treatment makes it more tightly woven, like cotton.”

If you’ve ever wished you could wear a snapchat filter in real life, then the facial optimization filler treatment is for you. Dr. Devgan’s signature “facial optimization” involves making “making several millimeter-level changes at a time, whether it’s adding volume to tear troughs to minimize dark circles, non-surgical rhinoplasty, gently contouring cheekbones, lifting brows with Botox, or adding subtle volume to lips.” “It’s the principle of a Snapchat filter—if you make many tiny one millimeter changes, the entire face will look better but it’s hard to pinpoint why,” she explains. “When fillers first came on the market, there was a tendency to try to do the most possible with them, and that’s why we saw so many taut, shiny foreheads and puffy chipmunk cheeks. There’s been a return to discretion and classicism; anatomic characteristics should not be trend-driven the way fashion and makeup are.”
