Dr. Devgan did my breast reconstruction after I had a mastectomy due to breast cancer, she made me feel at ease and was so helpful during the process. I'm very happy with my new breasts and I would highly recommend her.

Dr. Lara Devgan did an amazing job on my Mommy Makeover. I had a tummy tuck and breast lift with implants. The results have exceeded my expectations. I feel and look wonderful. This is one of the best choices I have ever made. The scars are well hidden, they are low and thin. I would recommend her to anyone and in the future she is my go to plastic surgeon.

An accidental trip on the sidewalk resulted in shattered glasses and a deep, long gash along my brow. Luckily, Dr Devgan was on call in the ER at the hospital. With competence and grace she sealed my wound and calmed my fears. Six days later, she removed the stiches. When the steri-strip washed off in the shower eleven days later, I was a bit nervous to look. But what I saw in the mirror was no less than a miracle – a nearly invisible scar. It had been less than three weeks – a truly amazing result.

One of the most helpful caring doctors I've had in years. She performed emergency surgery on my fingers after a serious dog bite. Did an excellent job. Always kept me informed of options and possible issues. Her follow up care was beyond the call. Luck to have her on my team

Very happy with my results. As they say, you only have one face. Frankly, it wasn't cheap, but it was worth every cent.

From the minute I met Dr. Devgan and told her how nervous I was about having surgery for a breast reduction she put my mind at ease. From the consultation to the actual procedure, I just knew I would be in good hands. And everything about the surgery and recovery happened exactly as she described it, including the recovery being easier than that of my C-section! Dr. Devgan displayed such professionalism, warmth, personal service and attention to every detail, even all my emails about the smallest things that seemed so big to me at the time. Cosmetic surgery is such a personal decision and you have to have the utmost respect and trust in the doctor you ultimately choose. I cannot imagine anyone but Dr. Devgan to have performed my procedure.

I could not be more happy with my choice of Dr. Lara Devgan for the removal of my breast implants and breast lift. This was a procedure I had put thought into for years. Right away, I felt comfortable with Dr. Devgan and felt no need to visit any other doctors. She took the time and thoroughly explained every aspect of the process as it is important for patients to feel knowledgeable about the process. Her care and compassion was evident from the start. She was honest and realistic about what to expect. Due to insurance issues, surgery had to be rescheduled a couple of times and she was extremely accommodating in fitting me in for a surgery date. The overall experience from surgery to her staff, was very comforting. During the recovery process, Dr. Devgan was accessible by phone\text at all times. I could not be more happy with the results; this was one of the best decisions I have made. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Devgan to everyone! She is truly talented.

I went to Dr. Lara Devgan to inspect a lesion that had been growing on my head, worried that it might be some kind of skin cancer. Dr. Devgan removed a small portion which was sent a lab for evaluation and, thankfully, the tests came negative for cancer. I asked Dr. Devgan to remove the remaining lesion which she did with carefully and thoroughly. She clearly has tons of experience with these kinds of procedures and I was very impressed with her surgical and overall medical knowledge. From start to finish, I felt that I was in extremely competent and experienced hands. I would not hesitate to go back to her with any future problems and would certainly recommend her to any family or friends.

Dr. Devgan did an amazing job at repairing two deep cuts to my hand caused by cooking accidents. She was courteous, efficient and and did a great job of closing the wounds with little pain and discomfort. I have no visible scar at all. I was impressed with her confidence and and breadth of experience. I would definitely recommend her for any plastic surgery procedure.
