Dermatologist Trusted by Lindsay Lohan Explains Why Celebrities Are Dissolving Their Fillers Now More Than Ever (Exclusive)

In recent years, there has been an increase in transparency around cosmetic enhancements

Everyone from Hollywood A-listers to reality TV stars and social media influencers have become more open about the work they’ve done to make the topic of plastic surgery less taboo.

With all the buzz about the best treatments and procedures flooding our social media feeds, we decided to turn to a dermatologist trusted by the stars.

Enter dr. Radmila Lukian, the founder of the Lucia clinic and a certified doctor and cosmetic dermatologist who has worked with Lindsay Lohan, Naomi Campbell and Eva Longoria. Based in Dubai, the Lucia Clinic offers invasive and non-invasive treatments for the face and body.

In an exclusive interview for PEOPLE, dr. Lukian talks about the future of fillers—including why dissolving them has become so popular—and shares insight into the aesthetic trends he predicts will dominate 2025.

Why do you think more celebrities are melting off their filler? What should people keep in mind when removing them? What is recommended to restore volume to the face afterwards?

Many celebrities are melting away their fillers in favor of a more natural, refreshed look. Aesthetic trends are constantly evolving and there has been a shift away from over-enhanced features towards a more balanced and harmonious look. This change reflects both the changing desires of clients and professionals in the beauty industry.

The beauty industry has often promoted dermal filler treatments that may not always be necessary, and I believe in a more thoughtful and selective approach. It is important to focus on enhancing natural beauty rather than following passing trends driven by the media and commercial interests of vendors. I am glad that my contribution has been recognized by my patients all over the world.

I am excited about the future of skin care and am already integrating advances that combine my expertise with cutting-edge technologies. We work to provide individualized treatments that prioritize both skin health and a radiant, natural glow.

Do you think fillers will continue to be popular in 2025, maybe in some other form like an alternative? If so, why?

Yes, I believe fillers will remain popular in 2025, but we will likely see them evolve. People are becoming more and more interested in less invasive treatments with results that look natural but are effective.

We could also see the rise of alternatives such as biostimulator injections, energy-based devices and autologous treatments. These alternatives not only increase volume, but also encourage the body to regenerate its own natural tissue. The trend is likely to be towards more sustainable, long-term solutions rather than relying solely on traditional fillers.

Can you give any insight into trendy beauty treatments?

The trend in cosmetic treatments is moving towards a more natural, rejuvenated look, with a focus on improving one’s own features, rather than changing them dramatically. People are looking for treatments that improve the health, texture and quality of the skin over time. The emphasis is on results that are subtle yet effective, ensuring individuals look refreshed and youthful without looking overdone. A growing trend is to use techniques that stimulate the body’s natural processes, such as collagen production, to restore volume and firmness.

I have integrated artificial intelligence (AI) into my work, especially in the design and management of treatments. I’m already using AI to optimize precision in laser treatments and other skin care procedures. However, it is essential to control and personalize these technologies to ensure that each treatment is tailored to each individual.

My philosophy revolves around the concept of skin decoding. Each person’s skin has a unique language, and understanding that language is key to effective treatment. Analyzing the needs of the skin, I focus on strengthening its immunity, which helps to eliminate abnormal cells that cause aging and other unwanted skin conditions. Being a visionary, combining science and years of expertise is my perfect recipe for achieving extraordinary results.

Every skin has its own story, and at the Lucia clinic I believe in a holistic approach to its discovery and improvement.

My personalized solutions integrate advanced technology, nutrition, lifestyle and expert care to bring out the best version of your skin, honoring its story and helping it shine from within. Trust the process and shine like a star.
