Five Key Anatomic Features of Beautiful Facial Bone Structure
1. High, Well-Defined Cheekbones – Prominent yet naturally contoured zygomatic bones create structure, lift, and an elegant midface balance.
2. A Balanced, Harmonious Jawline – A well-proportioned mandible with defined angles and a tapered chin provides strength without heaviness, contributing to a refined, youthful appearance.
3. A Straight or Slightly Curved Nasal Bridge – A well-integrated nasal structure that complements the face without overpowering other features enhances facial harmony.
4. A Smooth, Well-Proportioned Forehead – The frontal bone’s contour should transition seamlessly into the temples and brow ridge, supporting balanced upper facial aesthetics.
5. Defined Orbital Contours – A softly structured supraorbital rim and a smooth, youthful infraorbital transition prevent a hollowed or tired appearance, maintaining a bright, open look.

Signature Procedure | Upper Face Neuromodulator

In this TikTok, Dr. Lara Devgan demonstrates her signature upper face neuromodulator procedure.


Smooth, Sculpt, Refine: The Power of Upper Face Neuromodulators

In a world where facial expressions speak louder than words, neuromodulators offer the power to soften the signs of aging without silencing your individuality. Upper face neuromodulator treatments—commonly known as Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin—refine the most expressive area of the face with precision and subtlety.

What are neuromodulators?
Neuromodulators are injectable treatments derived from botulinum toxin. When placed precisely, they temporarily relax specific facial muscles. This softens dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated expressions like frowning, squinting, and raising the eyebrows. The result: smoother skin and a rested appearance, without sacrificing natural movement.

Where are they used in the upper face?
The most common upper face treatment areas include:

  • Forehead lines – horizontal lines caused by raising the brows

  • Glabellar lines (the “11s”) – vertical lines between the eyebrows

  • Crow’s feet – fine lines at the outer corners of the eyes

  • Brow lift – selective muscle relaxation to subtly elevate the brows

Each area is treated with tailored dosing to create a refreshed, not frozen, look.

What does treatment feel like?
The process takes 10–15 minutes. A fine needle is used to deliver small amounts of product into specific muscles. Discomfort is minimal and there’s no real downtime. Most people return to daily life immediately after.

When will I see results?
Some people notice a softening effect within 3–5 days, with full results appearing around day 10–14. Effects typically last 3–4 months, depending on individual muscle activity and metabolism.

Who is it for?
Upper face neuromodulators are ideal for a wide range of clients—from those in their 20s looking to prevent deeper wrinkles, to those in their 40s and beyond aiming to soften existing lines. Treatment is completely personalized based on anatomy, goals, and lifestyle.

Why precision matters
Though neuromodulators are common, outcomes depend entirely on the skill and experience of your provider. At Dr. Lara Devgan Scientific Beauty, every treatment is rooted in anatomical precision and artistic subtlety. Our approach is not to change the way you look, but to enhance your natural beauty in the most refined way possible.

Signature Procedure | Blepharoplasty: The Most Direct Approach to Rejuvenating the Eyes


Blepharoplasty: The Most Direct Approach to Rejuvenating the Eyes

When it comes to addressing aging around the eyes, many patients wonder whether they need a brow lift, upper eyelid surgery, or both. While both procedures can create a more youthful, refreshed appearance, blepharoplasty — or upper eyelid surgery — is often the most direct and effective solution.

Closer to the Source of the Problem

Blepharoplasty is anatomically closer to the area of concern. If you’re dealing with sagging upper eyelids, hooding, or excess skin that affects your expression or even your vision, blepharoplasty targets these issues head-on. The procedure removes excess skin, repositions fat, and tightens the upper eyelid area — directly improving the appearance of tired or heavy eyes.

Brow Lift: A Complement, Not a Replacement

A brow lift, by contrast, works higher on the forehead. It elevates the position of the brows, which can subtly open the upper face and improve the arch and orientation of the eyebrows. But if the primary concern is eyelid heaviness or skin resting on the lashes, a brow lift alone won’t be enough. That’s why a brow lift is often performed in conjunction with blepharoplasty — to optimize results rather than replace the need for eyelid surgery.

Strategic, Not Redundant

For the right patient, combining a brow lift with upper blepharoplasty can achieve beautiful harmony between the brows and the eyes. But when deciding where to start, blepharoplasty is usually the most strategic first step. It directly addresses the most proximal issue and can often achieve dramatic improvements without needing to manipulate the brows at all.

The Takeaway

If your concern is loose or heavy upper eyelid skin, blepharoplasty is the procedure that gets closest to the problem — both literally and surgically. A brow lift can elevate and enhance, but blepharoplasty delivers precision where it matters most. When in doubt, consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine the right approach for your anatomy and goals.

Doctor's Notes | Dr. Lara Devgan on the Best Recommendations for Male Facial Optimization

Dr. Lara Devgan talks the most important elements to facial optimization for a mature, male patient.


Dr. Lara Devgan on the Best Recommendations for Male Facial Optimization

Facial optimization isn’t just about looking younger—it’s about refining masculine features in a way that feels natural, confident, and balanced. When asked what the best approach is for male facial optimization, Dr. Lara Devgan breaks it down into four core areas that work synergistically to create a strong, structured appearance.

  1. Jawline Definition
    “A defined jawline is the cornerstone of a masculine face,” says Dr. Devgan. Whether through non-surgical contouring or surgical intervention, improving mandibular definition helps anchor the lower third of the face. This can include fillers for subtle sculpting or jawline implants for those needing structural enhancement. A crisp jawline gives the face a grounded, chiseled look.

  2. Fat Grafting for Volume Loss
    As men age, they lose deep fat in the midface and temples, which can make the face appear hollow or tired. Fat grafting restores volume using your body’s own fat, rebalancing proportions while avoiding an overfilled or artificial look. “It’s about restoring youthful vitality, not puffiness,” Dr. Devgan explains.

  3. Neck Lift
    The neck is often overlooked, but it plays a critical role in male facial harmony. “A heavy or loose neck can age a man more than any wrinkle,” says Dr. Devgan. A neck lift tightens underlying muscles and removes excess skin or fat, creating a clean transition from jaw to collarbone that radiates strength and refinement.

  4. Chin Implant
    A well-proportioned chin enhances the entire face. Dr. Devgan often recommends chin implants for men with retrusive chins or poor projection. “It creates balance between the nose, lips, and jaw—and can completely change the face’s profile for the better,” she notes.

Dr. Devgan’s tailored approach to male facial optimization combines anatomy, aesthetics, and surgical precision. By enhancing these key structural elements, men can achieve a more defined, confident, and masculine appearance—without losing what makes them look like themselves.

Doctor's Notes | Dr. Lara Devgan on the Future of Hair Growth: A Four-Step Scientific Approach

Dr. Lara Devgan breaks down the most scientifically-backed hair loss treatment process in this TikTok.


Dr. Lara Devgan on the Future of Hair Growth: A Four-Step Scientific Approach

Hair loss can feel like a losing battle—but according to Dr. Lara Devgan, board-certified plastic surgeon and founder of Dr. Lara Devgan Scientific Beauty, science is giving us real tools to turn the tide.

When asked if she sees science progressing hair growth, Dr. Devgan outlines a clear four-step “algorithm” that combines medical insight, biotech advances, and clinical treatments. Each step builds on the one before it, offering a personalized, scientific pathway to fuller, healthier hair:

  1. Address Vitamin Deficiencies & Medical Comorbidities
    Hair health starts from within. “You can’t fix hair growth without first correcting what’s going wrong inside the body,” says Dr. Devgan. She begins by checking for nutritional gaps (like iron, biotin, vitamin D), thyroid imbalances, and autoimmune conditions. Without this foundation, no topical or procedural treatment will be truly effective.

  2. Oral and Topical Minoxidil
    One of the most studied and effective treatments, minoxidil increases blood flow to hair follicles and extends the growth phase. “We’re using both oral and topical formulations now to target hair thinning from multiple angles,” she explains. Personalized dosing makes this more effective and better tolerated than ever before.

  3. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
    PRP therapy takes your own blood, concentrates the growth factors, and re-injects them into the scalp to stimulate dormant follicles. “Think of it as biohacking your body’s healing system for hair regeneration,” says Dr. Devgan. It’s especially useful in early to moderate stages of hair loss.

  4. Hair Transplantation
    For patients with more advanced hair loss or those who’ve exhausted other options, surgical transplantation offers permanent, natural-looking results. “It’s the final step in the algorithm—when you’ve done everything else right and still need density,” she says.

From internal health to surgical precision, Dr. Devgan’s four-step approach reflects how science is elevating the art of hair restoration—making the future of hair growth not just hopeful, but achievable.
