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

In recent years, there's been a rise in transparency around cosmetic enhancements

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

With all the buzz around the best treatments and procedures flooding our social media feeds, we decided to reach out to a dermatologist who's highly trusted among the stars.

Enter Dr. Radmila Lukian, the founder of Lucia Clinic and a board-certified physician and cosmetic dermatologist who's worked with Lindsay Lohan, Naomi Campbell and Eva Longoria. The Lucia Clinic, based in Dubai, offers invasive and non-invasive treatments for the face and body.

In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Dr. Lukian breaks down the future of fillers — including why dissolving them has become so popular — and shares insight on the aesthetic trends she predicts will dominate 2025.

Why do you think more celebrities are dissolving their filler? What do people need to keep in mind when removing them? What's recommended to add volume back to the face afterward?

Many celebrities are dissolving their fillers due to a growing preference for a more natural, refreshed look. Aesthetic trends are constantly evolving, and there's been a shift away from overly enhanced features toward a more balanced and harmonious appearance. This shift 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's important to focus on enhancing natural beauty rather than following transient trends driven by the media and suppliers' commercial interests. I’m glad that my contribution was recognized by my patients all over the world.

I’m excited about the future of skincare, and I’m already integrating advancements that combine my expertise with cutting-edge technologies. Working to provide individualized treatments that prioritize both skin health and a radiant, natural glow.

Do you think fillers will sustain popularity in 2025, perhaps in a different form like an alternative? If so, why?

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

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

Can you provide any insight on the trending cosmetic treatments?

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

I’ve been integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into my work, particularly in designing and guiding treatments. I’m already using AI to optimize precision in laser treatments and other skincare procedures. However, it’s essential to control and personalize these technologies to ensure that each treatment is customized to each individual`.

My philosophy revolves around the concept of decoding the skin. Every person’s skin has a unique language, and understanding that language is key to an effective treatment. By analyzing the skin’s needs, I focus on boosting its immunity, which helps 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 outstanding results.

What kind of facials and treatments (ex. injectables) do you recommend to those looking to achieve a Hollywood glow?

Every skin has its own story, and at Lucia Clinic, I believe in a holistic approach to uncover and enhance it. Skin health is not just about treatments but about understanding the unique journey of each individual — balancing science, wellness, and care. My personalized solutions integrate advanced technology, nutrition, lifestyle, and expert care to bring out the best version of your skin, respecting its story and helping it glow from within. Trust the process and shine like a star.
