Ozempic Face and Ozempic Butt

in Pittsburgh, PA

What Are Ozempic Face and Ozempic Butt?

“Ozempic face” and “Ozempic butt” describe the volume loss in the face and buttocks that can occur with rapid weight loss induced by GLP-1 medications, such as Ozempic.This may create a hollowed or sagging appearance in these areas. These changes can make individuals appear older or more fatigued, adding to the motivation for restorative treatments.
Prevention is the best approach to avoiding muscle wasting while on GLP-1 medications.

What Are the Causes of Ozempic Face and Butt?

Medication-Induced Weight Loss

Rapid fat reduction from GLP-1 medications leads to volume loss.

Loss of Volume

Significant weight loss reduces facial and buttock fat, causing sagging.

Skin Elasticity

Quick weight changes challenge the skin’s ability to adapt.

Aging

Age compounds the effects of volume loss, leading to more pronounced sagging.

Genetics

Some individuals are naturally more prone to facial volume loss, and GLP-1 medications can accelerate this process.

Treatments & Recommendations

Sofwave

This ultrasound-based treatment stimulates collagen production to improve skin elasticity and tighten sagging areas. It’s an excellent option for enhancing skin quality in the face and buttocks during or after weight loss.

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)

PRP therapy uses your own blood’s platelets to restore volume and rejuvenate skin. It’s best utilized when early signs of volume loss appear, helping to enhance skin texture and firmness naturally.

Renuva

This injectable treatment promotes the regeneration of natural fat to restore lost volume. However, Renuva should be deferred until GLP-1 medications are discontinued, as these medications inhibit fat production.

Fillers

Injectable fillers provide an immediate solution for restoring volume in the face and buttocks, creating a smoother, fuller appearance. They are ideal for addressing volume loss as it becomes noticeable.

EmFace

A noninvasive treatment that combines RF and HIFES technology to lift and firm the face while improving muscle tone. It’s an effective way to combat sagging caused by both aging and rapid weight loss.

Emsculpt NEO

This treatment combines muscle toning and fat reduction to rebuild definition in the buttocks. Starting muscle-building treatments like Emsculpt NEO early is highly recommended to prevent muscle wasting.

TruSculpt Flex

A muscle-strengthening treatment that targets and tones the glutes. Beginning muscle-toning treatments early when using GLP-1 medications is crucial for preserving muscle mass.
Learn More

It’s recommended to begin muscle-building and toning treatments early when using GLP-1 medications to help prevent muscle wasting. Preserving muscle is always easier than rebuilding it later.

Fillers and PRP are ideal once volume loss starts to appear. However, Renuva should be deferred until after GLP-1 medications are discontinued, as its primary purpose is to stimulate fat production—a process that cannot occur while these drugs are in use.
For optimal outcomes, a combination of multiple treatment modalities is always best.
