Ozempic Face Treatment: Restoring Facial Volume After Rapid Weight Loss
The success of GLP-1 weight loss medications like Ozempic, Mounjaro, Wegovy, and Saxenda has helped countless lose up to 15% of their body weight within a year. However, this rapid transformation often brings an unexpected challenge: facial volume loss that leaves patients looking gaunt or older than they feel.
At Āatma Aesthetics, located at The O2 London, Dr. Shaan Patel specialises in treating the unique facial concerns that accompany rapid weight loss, helping you maintain a youthful appearance that reflects your improved health.
What Is Ozempic Face?
“Ozempic face” describes the distinctive facial aging that occurs with rapid weight loss from GLP-1 medications. Unlike gradual weight reduction, accelerated fat loss outpaces the skin’s ability to adapt, resulting in visible changes that typically appear within three to six months:
Why Does Ozempic Face Happen?
Facial Fat Loss
GLP-1 medications systemic fat loss throughout the body, including specialised facial fat pads that provide structural support. The malar (cheek) fat pad, buccal fat pad, and temporal fat pads diminish alongside body fat, removing the scaffolding that maintains facial volume and youthful contours.
Collagen Suppression
Research suggests GLP-1 receptor agonists may directly suppress activity, the cells responsible for producing collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. This means not only is facial fat disappearing, but the skin’s ability to maintain firmness is simultaneously compromised, creating a dual mechanism that accelerates facial aging.
Skin Laxity
Rapid weight loss doesn’t allow skin time to contract naturally. The skin that was stretched over fuller facial volumes now hangs loosely, creating jowls, neck laxity, and sagging that adds years to one’s appearance.
Non-Surgical Treatment Options for Ozempic Face

Sunekos and Other Biostimulators
collagen-stimulating treatments address fine lines, improve skin texture, and enhance overall skin resilience, working synergistically with volumising treatments for comprehensive results.
Microneedling
Professional microneedling triggers intensive collagen production through controlled micro-injuries, improving skin firmness, texture, and tone with minimal downtime.
Protocols
The most effective approach combines immediate volume restoration with collagen-stimulating treatments, addressing both structural and skin quality concerns simultaneously.
When to Start Treatment
During Active Weight Loss
Biostimulator treatments like Profhilo are during active weight loss, supporting skin quality and collagen production even as facial fat continues diminishing. This helps skin adapt more effectively to changing contours.
After Weight Stabilises
For comprehensive volume restoration, most practitioners recommend waiting 2-3 months after weight stabilises. This ensures accurate assessment and optimal treatment planning.
