GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic have brought about numerous health benefits, but they’ve also led to a surge in skin issues. To address this, a new industry has emerged with various treatments and products targeting sagging skin.
Surgeons are now specializing in radiofrequency treatments for skin laxity reduction, combined with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and strategic filler placement. Dr. Macrene Alexiades reports success in reversing GLP-1 induced skin drooping with just two treatment sessions a month apart.
Dermatologist Simon Ourian focuses on restoring collagen and muscle mass during rapid weight loss, using his proprietary Neustem regenerative protocol to rebuild structural support and enhance muscle tone.
Paul Jarrod Frank recommends Ellacor fractional micro-coring, a technique that removes skin layers without surgical intervention, resulting in tighter skin.
Beverly Hills dermatologist Rhonda Rand combines facial fillers with radiofrequency microneedling and high-intensity focused ultrasound for optimal results.
New skin care products have also emerged, targeting GLP-1 users experiencing sagging skin. Chicago-based plastic surgeon Julius Few’s DermaReverse serum is designed specifically for this issue, while Image Skincare has introduced Vol.U.Lift to address volume loss and other side effects of GLP-1 usage.
