Ozempic Face: What It Is, Why It Happens and How to Avoid It
At the beginning of the year the weight-loss injections became mainstream, a dermatologist in New York told a newspaper and named it Ozempic face: a face that has lost weight faster than its skin could keep up with. Hollow temples, flatter cheeks, deeper lines beside the mouth and a jaw that looks just a bit loose. Not only is it not a diagnosis, but you will never find it mentioned in the product information for semaglutide or tirzepatide. It is what rapid fat loss can do to a face, and the injections have just made rapid fat loss normal. This page describes what is going on underneath your skin, who is most likely to be affected and discusses how it can best be slowed down, plus what you can do afterwards.
