GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic® and Wegovy® have helped many people achieve significant weight loss and better overall health. However, rapid or substantial weight loss can also lead to skin laxity, facial volume loss, and changes in skin quality.
At Signature Medical Spa, we help patients address GLP-1–related skin changes with advanced, non-surgical treatments designed to restore balance, firmness, and confidence—without surgery or an overfilled appearance.
Why GLP-1 Weight Loss Can Cause Skin Laxity
When weight loss happens quickly, the skin may not have enough time to contract and adapt. This can result in:
- Facial hollowing or gauntness
- Loose or crepey skin on the face, neck, arms, abdomen, or thighs
- More visible wrinkles and skin texture changes
Although the skin continues to remodel for months after weight stabilizes, many patients seek non-surgical options to support collagen production and restore a more youthful appearance.
Treating “Ozempic Face” With a Conservative Approach
Addressing facial volume loss after weight loss requires a thoughtful, customized approach.
Treatment is strategically placed in areas prone to volume depletion, including:
- Temples
- Mid-face and cheeks
- Perioral (around the mouth) region
This approach restores structure and balance while maintaining natural facial contours and expressions.
Neuromodulators & Fillers for Facial Rejuvenation
Neuromodulators help relax overactive muscles that contribute to wrinkles, while dermal fillers are used selectively to reinforce facial support where volume has been lost. When performed thoughtfully, these treatments can help patients look refreshed and rested—not overdone.
Bio-stimulatory injectables stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, making them an excellent option for patients experiencing skin laxity from weight loss. These treatments improve firmness, elasticity, and skin quality gradually over time, offering natural-looking results.
Skin Tightening Technology for Face & Body Ultherapy®
Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound energy to lift and tighten skin by stimulating collagen at deeper structural layers. It is commonly used on the face, neck, and décolletage and is ideal for post-weight-loss skin laxity.
Morpheus8
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to improve skin tone, texture, and firmness. It is effective for both face and body areas, including the jawline, abdomen, arms, and thighs.
These treatments can be used alone or combined with injectables for comprehensive, non-surgical rejuvenation.
Supporting Skin Health With Medical-Grade Skincare
Weight loss can affect hydration and nutrient balance, which impacts skin health. A personalized skincare routine helps strengthen the skin barrier, improve elasticity, and support long-term results.
At Signature Medical Spa, we build customized skincare routines using medical-grade products to enhance treatment results and support skin health.
