GLP-1 weight-loss medications have helped many people lose weight successfully. They work by mimicking a natural hormone called GLP-1, which acts on receptors in the body to reduce appetite and help you feel fuller for longer.
Why the face can change
When weight comes off quickly, it doesn’t just leave the body, it leaves the face too. We all have pads of fat in our cheeks, temples and around the eyes that give the face its soft, youthful shape. As these shrink, the face can look hollow, tired or older, and skin may start to sag because it has less support underneath. This is sometimes called “Ozempic face”.
How Sculptra restores volume
Sculptra is a collagen stimulator made from poly-L-lactic acid. Rather than simply filling an area, it encourages your skin to make its own collagen, gradually rebuilding lost structure and firmness. Results develop naturally over several months, so the change is subtle and looks like you.
A treatment with a long history
Sculptra isn’t new. It was originally used to help people living with HIV who had lost volume in their face, and was approved in the US for this purpose in 2004. That long track record of restoring facial volume is one reason we trust it today.
Your treatment plan
Sculptra is usually given as a course of 3 to 4 sessions, and we can treat the face, décolletage and arms. Every plan starts with a consultation, and the best results are seldom one thing. We may also recommend skin treatments and medical-grade homecare to support your skin.
