Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$397

Payments

23

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Rebecca Novo received $397 across 23 payments in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”

What areas of care does Dr. Rebecca Novo cater to?
Dr. Novo specializes in plastic surgery, offering both cosmetic and reconstructive procedures. Her expertise likely encompasses a range of surgical and non-surgical treatments for the face, body, and breasts. Dr. Novo's treatment philosophy centers on a customized, comprehensive approach to aesthetic care, aiming to restore a patient's appearance rather than changing it, with a strong emphasis on natural-looking results. She believes in understanding each patient's unique skin, anatomy, concerns, and goals to build an individualized plan, rather than making everyone look the same. A thorough diagnosis is paramount in aesthetic consultations, considering factors like volume loss, bone loss, skin laxity, poor skin quality, muscle movement, and fat distribution. Her goal is to identify the patient's actual concern and match it with the most effective treatment, even if it differs from the patient's initial request, or if it means advising against treatment altogether to save the patient from ineffective and costly procedures. This approach ensures the right diagnosis leads to the right treatment and better results, potentially saving patients thousands of dollars. She prefers combining biostimulation and strategic structural support in treatments. Upper blepharoplasty is one of Dr. Novo’s favorite procedures. She believes skincare should not be limited to the face, emphasizing the importance of treating the hands, neck, and chest. Dr. Novo recommends a comprehensive skincare approach, including specific product recommendations like Alastin Aluminate (important before and after laser, except the week after), Skinmedica ceramide treatment cream, Obagi tretinoin 0.1%, and Skinmedica TNS. She loves Dr. Saluja’s medical-grade skincare and stresses that customized medical-grade skincare at home is as important as in-office treatments. Prescription-strength skincare is utilized to continue treating pigment, encourage healthy cell turnover, and maintain results between appointments. Daily broad-spectrum SPF is recommended, as UV exposure can worsen pigmentation in every skin tone. Dr. Novo advocates for consistency in treatment over quick fixes.
