“Ozempic Face” – What Can Be Done About Facial Volume Loss After Weight Loss?

Significant weight loss due to modern medications used to treat obesity or diabetes – so-called GLP-1 receptor agonists – can lead to visible changes in the face. A common side effect is volume loss in the midface, resulting in hollow cheeks, sagging skin, and a tired appearance.

This phenomenon is known as “Ozempic Face”, regardless of the specific medication.

What causes the Ozempic Face?

As body weight decreases, facial fat diminishes as well. If the skin has reduced elasticity, it struggles to adapt, causing drooping, loss of contour, and structural change.

Our solution: combined, individualized, and medically sound

In our clinic, we combine effective medical-aesthetic treatments to restore volume, stimulate collagen, and improve skin texture – always aiming for natural-looking results.

Our treatment options:

• Hyaluronic acid fillers – for volume restoration (e.g. cheeks, temples, jawline)

• Biostimulators (e.g. Sculptra®, Radiesse®) – for long-term collagen stimulation

• Endolift® laser – for skin tightening and contour improvement

• PicoWay® laser – to enhance skin tone and structure

• CO₂ laser resurfacing – for more advanced skin changes

• Botulinum toxin – if needed, to optimize facial harmony

When should you start?

The earlier, the better. Preventive treatments are most effective when skin still has tone. Ideally, consultation should begin at the start of the weight loss journey.

Our experience – your confidence

We support many patients affected by facial changes after weight loss with personalized, well-tolerated treatments.
