If you’ve noticed changes in your facial appearance after weight loss with medications like Ozempic, you’re not alone. Significant weight reduction can sometimes lead to a hollowed or tired look, especially in delicate areas of the face. At True Beauty in San Diego, Dr. Reagan offers advanced fat grafting techniques to restore youthful balance and natural-looking harmony. Choosing True Beauty means choosing personalized care, artistic precision, and results that reflect your best self.
How Ozempic Affects Facial Volume
When you lose weight rapidly, your body often sheds fat evenly—including the fat that once supported your facial features. For some, this can mean cheeks that appear flatter, temples that look hollow, or under-eye areas that seem more shadowed. This type of volume loss is sometimes referred to as “Ozempic face.”
Even though the overall health benefits of weight loss are undeniable, the resulting changes can make you look older than you feel. Without the natural cushion of fat, your skin may also appear looser, contributing to a less vibrant look.
Why Balance Matters in Facial Appearance
Your face is naturally designed with proportion in mind. Each feature—eyes, nose, lips, and jawline—looks most attractive when in balance with one another. When facial fat diminishes, that harmony can shift. Cheeks that once lifted the midface may sink, the jawline may appear sharper, and fine lines may become more noticeable.
These changes can disrupt the overall sense of symmetry, making your face look less youthful and less rested. Fortunately, there is a way to restore that balance without relying on artificial fillers.
How Fat Grafting Restores Harmony
Fat grafting uses your body’s own fat, taken from areas such as the abdomen or thighs, to add volume where it has been lost. The fat is carefully purified and then injected into precise facial zones. Because it uses your own tissue, fat grafting creates results that look and feel natural while also lasting longer than many temporary treatments.
With this approach, you can regain fullness in your cheeks, soften deep folds, and smooth transitions between features. The outcome is a refreshed appearance that maintains your individuality while restoring youthful balance.
