Signature Procedure | Tear Trough Augmentation

Dr. Lara Devgan demonstrates her signature tear trough augmentation procedure in this TikTok.


Bright Eyes, Refreshed Look: Dr. Lara Devgan’s Signature Tear Trough Augmentation

The eyes are often the first place to show signs of fatigue and aging. Even with a full night’s sleep, dark circles and under-eye hollowness can create a tired or sunken appearance. That’s where Dr. Lara Devgan’s signature Tear Trough Augmentation comes in—a refined, subtle procedure designed to rejuvenate the under-eye area with natural-looking results.

What Is Tear Trough Augmentation?

Tear trough augmentation is a non-surgical treatment that uses hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler to smooth and fill the hollow groove between the lower eyelid and upper cheek. This area, known as the tear trough, can deepen with age or genetics, causing shadows, volume loss, and a tired look.

Dr. Devgan’s approach is widely respected for its artistry and precision. As a board-certified plastic surgeon with a reputation for elegance and restraint, her technique focuses on enhancing your natural anatomy—not changing it.

Why Choose Dr. Devgan’s Technique?

Dr. Devgan has pioneered a conservative, layered filler technique that minimizes risk and maximizes results. Unlike traditional methods that can cause puffiness or a bluish tint (the “Tyndall effect”), her method is designed to:

  • Restore lost volume subtly

  • Improve the appearance of dark circles

  • Create a smooth transition between the lower eyelid and cheek

  • Avoid overfilling or lumpiness

  • Maintain natural facial expressions and contours

The procedure is performed using micro-cannulas for greater safety and reduced bruising. Patients typically experience minimal downtime and often return to daily activities the same or next day.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Ideal candidates for tear trough augmentation are individuals who have:

  • Hollowing or shadowing under the eyes

  • Mild to moderate volume loss

  • Good skin elasticity

  • Realistic expectations for subtle, refined results

This treatment is not meant to correct severe under-eye bags caused by prolapsed fat pads, which may require surgery. During consultation, Dr. Devgan carefully evaluates facial anatomy to determine whether filler is appropriate—or if another approach would better suit the patient’s needs.

Results and Longevity

Results are immediate, with full effects visible within 1–2 weeks as any minor swelling resolves. On average, tear trough fillers last 9–12 months, though this varies by individual metabolism and lifestyle factors. Many patients return annually for maintenance.

A Signature That Speaks for Itself

What sets Dr. Devgan apart isn’t just her medical skill—it’s her aesthetic vision. Her signature tear trough augmentation is beloved by patients for the way it restores youthful brightness while keeping the results nearly imperceptible to others. You’ll look well-rested, not “done.”

In a world that increasingly values authenticity, Dr. Devgan’s work reminds us that true beauty lies in enhancement—not transformation.

Scientific Beauty | Dr. Devgan's Surgical Instrument

In this TikTok, Dr. Lara Devgan talks about her custom, specialized surgical instruments and what makes them important.


Redefining Surgical Precision: Dr. Lara Devgan’s Push for Better Tools

In a recent TikTok, Dr. Lara Devgan—renowned plastic surgeon and medical thought leader—calls attention to a simple but significant issue: surgical tools are not made with women in mind. Most instruments, she explains, are designed to fit larger hands, typically male ones. This creates a daily ergonomic challenge for women in surgery, who must adapt to tools that don’t fit them.

The Problem with One-Size-Fits-All

In medicine, precision is everything. Yet the tools of the trade often don’t account for the range of hand sizes among surgeons. For many women, that means using instruments that are too big, heavy, or awkward to hold properly. Over time, this mismatch can lead to fatigue, strain, and even compromise the delicacy of surgical movements. It’s not about making things easier—it’s about making them functional for everyone.

Why Design Matters

Dr. Devgan points out that medicine has been slow to update its tools to reflect the diversity of the people practicing it. The lack of smaller, more ergonomically friendly instruments sends a message: these tools weren’t made for you. As more women enter surgery and take on leadership roles in medicine, it’s time for the equipment to evolve as well. Good design doesn’t just help the surgeon—it helps the patient too.

A Call for Change

This isn’t just about comfort. It’s about performance, safety, and respect. Tools should fit the people who use them. Dr. Devgan’s video is a reminder that seemingly small changes—like offering multiple instrument sizes—can have a profound impact on the future of surgery. As she continues to speak up, she’s paving the way for a more inclusive and precise operating room.

Doctor's Notes | 5 Questions about Facelifts

Dr. Lara Devgan answers 5 questions about facelifts in this TikTok!


5 Questions about Facelifts:

1.) The common misconception that they have to look unnatural or overdone: They can be very discreet, elegant and understated.

2.) How long is the recovery time for a typical facelift? I usually tell my patients one to two weeks of social downtime, two weeks until you’re “restaurant ready,” and six weeks until you’re “red carpet ready.”

3.) Is it better to combine a facelift with other procedures or is it better to do it alone? You can kind of go either way. In my opinion, every area of the face bears on the adjacent and anatomic areas so a combination of procedures can be very beautiful and is generally the preference I have. However, this is also very patient-specific and should be discussed with your doctor.

4.) What procedures do you commonly do alongside a facelift? Eyelid surgery, upper and lower lip leproplasty, temporal brow lift, neck lift, lip lift, buccal fat pad excision, and a very common one is autologous fat grafting.

5.) What’s the most common age for a facelift? It’s more about your anatomy than age. But I’ve done facelifts on patients ranging from their 30s to their 80s. I would say the 40s and 50s are the most common range.
