Singular work,
considered hands.
Plastic surgery, considered slowly, performed by one surgeon. The Devereaux Institute does not scale. We do twelve consultations a week and ten procedures a month. That is the entire practice.
What we do
Three points of contact.
Procedures
A private consultation with Dr. Devereaux is the starting point for surgical work. We do not high-pressure or hard-sell. We evaluate honestly, recommend what we would do for our own family, and walk away when the answer is no.
Reserve a consultationTreatments
For established patients only. Curated non-surgical procedures Dr. Devereaux personally performs or supervises. Same-week availability.

Dr. Alexandre Devereaux
From Dr. Devereaux
The slow practice.
The Institute was structured around a single decision: that every patient would have a full, unhurried hour for consultation, and that most surgical patients would come in twice before anything was scheduled. A practice built that way cannot be large, and ours is not. We accepted that constraint deliberately, and the practice has been the better for it ever since.
A meaningful share of consultations here end with a recommendation to not have surgery — to wait, to do less, or to do nothing at all. This is not unusual at The Devereaux Institute, and it is not offered as a courtesy. It is the practice working exactly as it was designed to work.
Facial procedures comprise the majority of what Dr. Devereaux does. He completed his fellowship in cosmetic facial surgery at Manhattan Eye, Ear & Throat, and the practice has stayed close to that training — considered, conservative, and unhurried in everything it does to the face.
Aesthetics, done well, is a thirty-year relationship rather than a single procedure. The Institute is structured to support that relationship for its full duration — through the first consultation, the years that follow, and the quiet maintenance that good work quietly requires.

The Apothecary
Considered skincare, formulated in-practice.
Dr. Devereaux's apothecary began as a curated set of pre- and post-operative protocols for surgical patients. Over ten years, it became a small, deliberate line of formulations — three products, each with a single purpose, made in small batches and sold only through the Institute.
The Cleanser
Non-stripping, gentle, daily.
$48
The Treatment
Retinol + peptide complex. Begin three nights weekly.
$165
The Recovery Balm
Post-procedure occlusive. Used by every surgical patient.

From our patients
In their words.
I came to The Institute expecting to schedule a procedure. Dr. Devereaux spent an hour with me and then told me, plainly, that he did not think I needed surgery — that I should wait, and perhaps reconsider in five years. I have never had a doctor talk me out of something. It is the reason I trust him completely.
What I did not expect was the relationship. I have been a patient for eleven years now. Dr. Devereaux knows my face, my history, the things I worry about and the things I do not. Each visit builds on the last. It does not feel like a transaction — it feels like being looked after by someone who intends to be there for the long run.
I saw four surgeons before I chose The Devereaux Institute. The other consultations lasted twenty minutes. This one lasted an hour, and Dr. Devereaux drew, explained, and answered every question without once checking the clock. The depth of that first conversation told me everything about how the work itself would be done.
Questions
Before you reserve.
Every consultation is a full hour with Dr. Devereaux. He will examine the area of concern, discuss what is and is not advisable, and walk through options, trade-offs, and realistic outcomes. Most surgical patients consult twice before scheduling anything. There is no pressure to decide in the room.
We hold $250 to reserve the hour. It is applied in full to any procedure you undertake, or refunded if you cancel at least 48 hours in advance. The hold simply ensures the time is held for someone who intends to use it.
No. A meaningful share of consultations end with a recommendation against surgery. If Dr. Devereaux does not believe a procedure is in your interest, he will tell you so directly — and explain why.
It varies. Most patients consult, take time to consider, and consult a second time before scheduling. From the decision to the procedure is typically four to eight weeks. We do not rush this part of the work.
Yes. Revision work is a significant part of the practice. Bring whatever records and operative notes you have; the first consultation will be a candid assessment of what can and cannot be improved.
The Apothecary is a small set of formulations developed for our surgical patients' pre- and post-operative care. The three products are available to anyone — inquire through the practice and Renata will arrange it.
