What Is “Ozempic Face” and How to Treat It

The rise of Ozempic as a popular weight loss medication has brought about unexpected side effects, including what’s now known as “Ozempic face.” This phenomenon has become a growing concern for many who have undergone rapid weight loss. Let’s explore what Ozempic face is, how it affects the body, and the treatments available to address these issues.

Understanding Ozempic and Its Effects

Ozempic, originally designed for type 2 diabetes management, has gained popularity as a weight loss aid. While it effectively helps shed pounds, the rapid weight loss can lead to unexpected cosmetic changes, particularly in the face and body.

What is “Ozempic Face”?

“Ozempic face” refers to the sagging or drooping of facial features that can occur after significant weight loss. As fat is lost, the skin may not contract quickly enough, leading to a gaunt or aged appearance.

The “Ozempic Body” Phenomenon

Similar to Ozempic face, the “Ozempic body” describes the loose, excess skin that remains after rapid weight loss throughout the body. This can be particularly noticeable in areas like the abdomen, arms, and thighs.

Treating Ozempic Face and Body

After Ozempic treatment, many individuals seek solutions for droopy skin. Fortunately, several effective treatments are available to address these concerns:

  1. Dermal Fillers for Facial Rejuvenation
    One of the most popular treatments for Ozempic face is the use of dermal fillers. These injectables can restore volume to sunken areas of the face, providing a more youthful and refreshed appearance. At Falcon Plastic Surgery, we offer Juvéderm, a leading dermal filler that can effectively address facial volume loss.
  2. Panniculectomy for Body Contouring
    For those dealing with significant excess skin on the body, particularly in the abdominal area, a panniculectomy might be the ideal solution. This surgical procedure removes excess skin and fat from the lower abdomen, helping to contour the body and alleviate issues associated with overhanging skin.
  3. Combination Treatments
    Often, a combination of treatments yields the best results. Dr. Christopher Falcon can create a personalized treatment plan that may include both non-surgical and surgical options to address Ozempic face and body concerns comprehensively.
