Post Weight Loss Facelift (Ozempic Face)

Expert Facial Restoration for GLP-1–Related Changes in Beverly Hills

Rapid weight loss from GLP-1 medications (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro) can dramatically reshape the face — often in ways that appear deflated, hollow, or prematurely aged. At Ramly Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, Dr. Elie Ramly offers a refined, anatomically precise approach to Ozempic Face restoration, rebalancing volume, contour, and facial support while preserving a natural, elegant, age-appropriate appearance.

What Is “Ozempic Face”?

GLP-1–related weight loss changes the facial structure in several ways:

  • Loss of deep and superficial facial fat (particularly in the cheeks, temples, under-eye region, and jawline)

  • Sharpening of lines and folds due to loss of support

  • Worsening under-eye hollowing and tear troughs

  • Descent of midface tissues once deep volume disappears

  • Skin laxity that becomes visible without underlying support

  • A more gaunt, tired, or aged appearance even in younger patients

These changes reflect true structural deflation, not just surface wrinkles — which is why non-surgical skin tightening alone is insufficient for many patients.

Dr. Ramly’s Approach: Facial Rejuvenation After GLP-1 Weight Loss

Your treatment is tailored to your anatomy, rate of weight loss, and goals.
Dr. Ramly focuses on restoring facial balance, not overfilling or altering identity.

Your personalized plan may include:

1. Strategic Facial Fat Grafting (Micro- and Nano-Fat Transfer)

Used to restore youthful volume to:

  • Cheeks & midface

  • Temples

  • Under-eyes / tear troughs

  • Jawline

  • Chin

  • Areas of deflation or hollowness

Fat transfer provides soft, natural, long-lasting restoration that moves with your expressions.

2. Facelift or Deep Plane Facelift (When Indicated)

For patients with:

  • Midface descent

  • Jowling

  • Loss of contour along the jawline

  • Skin laxity unmasked by weight loss

A facelift re-suspends deeper tissues, restores lift, and creates a harmonious framework that fat grafting alone cannot achieve.

3. Neck Lift or Deep-Neck Sculpting

If GLP-1 weight loss affected the neck, these techniques may be paired to restore:

  • A smooth cervical contour

  • A clean jawline

  • Platysma support

  • Balance between face and neck

4. Skin-Quality Optimization

Customized treatments to restore radiance and elasticity:

  • Laser or light resurfacing

  • Medical-grade skincare

  • Texture refinement

  • Tone improvement

  • Microneedling with biological stimulation

These elevate the final result without altering your identity.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Ozempic Face Restoration?

  • See under-eye changes or temple hollowing after weight loss

  • Feel your face looks older than the rest of your body

  • Want a solution that looks natural, subtle, and age-appropriate

  • Are seeking a balanced, artful restoration, not overfilled cheeks or “pillow face”

  • Have maintained a stable weight for several months

Ozempic Face vs. Traditional Facial Aging

GLP-1–related facial changes are fundamentally different from traditional aging. Instead of the slow, gradual decline in facial volume that occurs over time, Ozempic Face is marked by rapid, concentrated fat loss that can dramatically alter the contours of the cheeks, temples, and jawline. Traditional aging also involves a steady descent of tissues and the development of surface wrinkles; by contrast, GLP-1 changes often reveal sudden laxity and deeper structural hollowing that fillers alone cannot adequately address. Where age-related contour loss is typically subtle, Ozempic Face creates sharper transitions, pronounced gauntness, and, in many cases, significant midface deflation rather than mild settling. Because these are structural changes—not just surface-level concerns—the most effective treatment requires true anatomic restoration, not temporary fillers or device-based tightening.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Do I need surgery, or can Ozempic Face be treated non-surgically?

Mild cases may respond to targeted fat grafting or fillers.
Moderate to severe changes often benefit most from a fat grafting + facelift approach for long-lasting, natural results.

Is fat grafting safe and long-lasting?

Yes. Fat transfer is one of the safest, most natural ways to restore facial volume with long-term integration.

Will I look overfilled or “puffy”?

No. Dr. Ramly’s approach values restraint, proportion, and natural beauty — never overcorrection.

Can I continue GLP-1 medications after surgery?

Many patients do. This is individualized and discussed during consultation.

How soon will I look normal again?

Most patients return to social settings in about 10–14 days, depending on the treatments performed.

Will I look like a different person?

No. The goal is to restore, not change — ensuring results remain natural and true to your identity.
