Why Weight Loss Affects Your Face
As you lose weight, fat cells shrink not only in your body but also in your face. This loss of fat can make the cheeks appear hollow, the skin less plump, and the jawline less defined. Additionally, the natural aging process means the skin may not bounce back as easily, leading to a sagging or sunken appearance.
Medically Assisted Weight Loss and Facial Changes
Medically assisted weight loss options like Ozempic or similar medications can accelerate the process, but they can also intensify these facial changes due to rapid fat reduction. In fact, the term “Ozempic face” was coined to describe the changes that often accompany the medication. These shifts can leave you feeling like your facial appearance does not reflect your weight loss success.
Non-Surgical Solutions for Facial Rejuvenation
Dr. Shaun Patel at Miami Skin and Vein offers personalized, non-surgical treatment plans to address facial changes resulting from weight loss. By using advanced injectable and energy-based treatments, patients can maintain—or even improve—their facial definition while achieving their weight loss goals.
Some effective treatments include:
- Sculptra Aesthetic: Stimulates collagen production and restores volume, softening hollow areas and improving skin texture.
- Restylane Defyne: Enhances chin projection and refines jawline definition for a contoured appearance.
- BOTOX Cosmetic or Dysport: Relaxing the platysma muscle improves jawline sharpness, creating a more youthful profile.
With these and other treatments, Dr. Patel has helped patients preserve and enhance their facial contours. One patient undergoing a year-long weight loss journey saw significant improvements in her jawline thanks to treatments at our clinic, defying the typical sagging associated with weight loss.
