Chicago's premiere facial & body non-surgical aesthetics
In 2023, there was a noticeable increase in the number of people seeking cosmetic procedures like fillers, Botox, facelifts, and neck lifts. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, minimally invasive procedures rose by 7%, and surgical treatments increased by 5% compared to the previous year. Many professionals in the field attribute this rise to the growing popularity of weight loss medications like Ozempic, which are known for their effectiveness. While these medications help shed pounds, they can also lead to side effects like sagging skin and a hollowed appearance, commonly referred to as “Ozempic face.”
What Is Ozempic Face?
Weight loss drugs like Ozempic, semaglutide, and tirzepatide have become widely used for their ability to manage appetite and regulate blood sugar, promoting significant weight loss. However, rapid weight loss can have some drawbacks. One common side effect is “Ozempic face,” where the face loses volume, resulting in sagging skin and a more hollow, aged look. This occurs when the skin struggles to tighten after the fat beneath it diminishes, leading to a gaunt appearance.
Solutions for Ozempic Face: Fillers and Surgery
To combat the effects of “Ozempic face,” many patients turn to cosmetic treatments to restore volume and a youthful appearance. Non-surgical options like fillers and Botox are effective in replenishing lost volume, smoothing out lines, and enhancing facial contours. For those seeking more permanent or dramatic results, facelifts and neck lifts offer solutions to tighten sagging skin and achieve a firmer, more refreshed look. These procedures have grown in popularity, particularly as individuals address the aesthetic changes that come with significant weight loss.
Using Semaglutide and Tirzepatide Safely
While semaglutide and tirzepatide can be highly effective for weight loss, it’s crucial to approach these medications with caution. Gradual weight loss under the guidance of a healthcare provider can minimize the risk of sagging skin and other unwanted side effects. Maintaining a balanced diet, staying hydrated, and incorporating exercises that promote muscle toning can help preserve skin elasticity. Working closely with a medical professional ensures that your weight loss journey is both safe and aligned with your aesthetic goals.
