Imagine that you have achieved your goal – your journey to health and well-being has resulted in a significant transformation of your body. Fitting into smaller sizes is a huge victory that inspires you to continue. Sometimes, however, this joy is accompanied by a certain dissonance: while your body is regenerated and full of energy, a glance in the mirror may reveal that your facial features are not keeping pace. You are not ready for surgery, but you want to discover how you can feel better, restoring harmony between a youthful spirit and the appearance of the skin.

What does the term Ozempic face mean?
The concept Ozempic face is a term referring to visible and undesirable ageing of facial features, which may occur in people experiencing rapid weight loss. Although the name refers to a specific group of drugs, this problem affects anyone who loses weight rapidly in a short period of time, regardless of the method used. In practice, this means that the thin and delicate skin of the face loses its natural volume support, which leads to a disruption of its previous aesthetics.
Rapid weight loss – face: why does the face age after losing weight?
The undesirable the effect of facial ageing after weight loss is directly related to changes occurring in subcutaneous tissues. When your body burns energy reserves, unfortunately, this does not bypass the delicate fat layer located under the skin of the face. Disappearance of fatty tissue on the face is a process professionally referred to as lipoatrophy. This fat acts as a cushion and support, providing a kind of „scaffolding” for the skin.
The sudden loss of this volume means that skin that was previously stretched suddenly loses its support. Gravitational forces and ageing processes, which had been occurring slowly, are accelerated.
