Facial Fat Loss and Ozempic: What You Need to Know
In recent months, there’s been a surge in popularity of medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and other weight loss injections. While these treatments can be effective in reducing body fat, many users are noticing a less desirable side effect—facial fat loss. This phenomenon, often referred to as “Ozempic face,” has become a hot topic in aesthetic medicine and non-surgical cosmetic treatments.
Facial fat plays a crucial role in maintaining a youthful, healthy appearance. As we age, we naturally lose fat in areas like the cheeks, temples, and under the eyes, leading to sagging skin, facial hollows, and a more tired look. With rapid or significant weight loss, these effects can become more pronounced and prematurely age the face.
Fortunately, there are advanced skincare and aesthetic solutions available to restore lost facial volume, and I offer tailored non-invasive treatments for both male and female clients here at The Aesthetics Guy NI.
AesPlla – A New Generation of Volume Restoration
One of the most innovative treatments I offer is AesPlla, a next-generation poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) that stimulates your body’s natural collagen production. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which primarily add immediate volume, AesPlla works with your body over time, encouraging fibroblast activity to rebuild the skin’s underlying structure.
The treatment is carried out over three sessions, allowing gradual but noticeable improvements. As collagen production increases, the skin becomes firmer, plumper, and more resilient. This natural process ensures that the results look subtle and harmonious—no overfilled or unnatural appearance here!
Key Benefits of AesPlla
Restored facial volume and definition
Improved skin texture, elasticity, and firmness
A gradual, long-lasting effect that builds over time
Minimal downtime with non-surgical treatment options
Dermal Fillers – A Strategic Approach
In some cases, dermal fillers can also play a role in enhancing lost facial volume. By precisely placing filler in areas like the cheeks, temples, or jawline, we can restore balance and structure to the face. This approach is ideal for clients who may not require a full collagen stimulation course but want targeted, immediate results.
Again, natural-looking results are my main priority. Every face is different, and my approach is always about enhancing your features, not changing them. With the right techniques, dermal fillers can subtly lift and rejuvenate the face without anyone knowing you've had "work done."
Customised Aesthetic Treatment Plan
No two faces are the same, and every client has unique needs and goals. During your consultation, I’ll assess your facial structure, skin condition, and lifestyle to recommend the most suitable treatment plan for you. Whether it’s AesPlla, dermal fillers, or a combination of both, the goal is always to achieve natural, refreshed results that leave you feeling confident.
If you’ve been affected by facial fat loss due to weight loss treatments or are simply noticing the effects of ageing, there are advanced skincare options available to help. Feel free to reach out and book a consultation with me at The Aesthetics Guy NI. Together, we’ll work to restore and enhance your natural appearance, so you can look and feel your best.
