What is Ozempic Face and How Can I Treat It?
Have you heard of “Ozempic face”? It’s a term that’s been buzzing around lately, referring to changes in facial appearance some people experience while using semaglutide (Ozempic) or other GLP-1 receptor agonists like Monjauro. These medications, commonly used for managing type 2 diabetes and aiding in weight loss, can cause facial fat loss or shift where fat is distributed. This can result in a more sunken or gaunt look, especially in the cheeks, temples, or under the eyes.
If you’ve noticed these changes, don’t worry! There are fantastic treatments available that can help restore a youthful glow and improve your skin’s texture and firmness. Here’s a breakdown of what we at Anu Medical Spa offers to tackle “Ozempic face”:
Microneedling
Microneedling is a popular treatment that involves creating tiny punctures in the skin with fine needles to stimulate collagen production. This can enhance overall skin texture and firmness, reducing hollow areas and giving your skin a refreshed, plumped-up appearance.
Radiofrequency (RF) Skin Tightening
RF treatments use heat energy to penetrate deep into the skin, boosting collagen production and improving elasticity. This can help tighten sagging skin and enhance facial contours. At Anu Medical Spa, we offer RF treatments like Secret RF and Pelleve, which are perfect for firming up your skin and combating that gaunt look.
Dermal Fillers
Hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers are an excellent option for restoring volume to areas affected by fat loss. These fillers can be injected into the cheeks, temples, or other areas to enhance your facial contours and give you a more youthful appearance. The results are quick and the procedure is minimally invasive, making it a favorite for many.
Ultherapy
Ultherapy uses ultrasound energy to reach deep into your skin and underlying tissues. This energy heats the tissue at specific depths, stimulating the production of new collagen and elastin fibers over time. It’s a non-invasive way to lift and tighten your skin, perfect for counteracting the effects of facial fat loss.
VI Peel
The VI Peel is a chemical peel that stimulates collagen and elastin production in the deeper layers of your skin. It uses TCA and other acids to exfoliate and stimulate fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen and elastin production. This process helps improve skin elasticity and firmness over time, addressing sagging and hollow areas for a more vibrant look.
