At Kitsilano Medical Aesthetic in Vancouver, we’ve noticed an interesting trend.  The growing popularity of GLP-1 weight loss medications such as Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro has helped millions achieve significant weight loss. However, many patients are discovering an unexpected side effect: a more hollow, tired, or aged appearance in the face. 

This phenomenon, often referred to as Ozempic face, is driving increased demand for non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatments, including Botox in Vancouver. 

What Is Ozempic Face?

Ozempic face isn’t caused by any medication itself but rather the rapid weight loss. As body fat decreases, the face can lose volume in the cheeks and temples, while skin may appear looser around the jawline. Essentially, as the face becomes thinner, lines and wrinkles can become more pronounced.

The loss of facial volume resulting from significant weight loss means many patients are looking for subtle, non-surgical ways to restore a refreshed appearance without compromising the health benefits of their weight loss journey.

Can Botox Help?

Botox doesn’t replace lost facial volume, but it is often used to soften the appearance of the dynamic wrinkles that become more noticeable after weight loss. By relaxing targeted facial muscles, Dr. Kamani can use Botox to smooth expression lines on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes, creating a more rested and youthful appearance.

Many of our patients combine Botox with other aesthetic treatments, like dermal fillers, to target balanced, natural-looking facial rejuvenation. This helps restore the volume loss that comes with taking Ozempic, giving the face a more plump and youthful appearance. During your consultation, Dr. Kamani will create a customized treatment plan that aligns with your cosmetic goals.

Experience Matters

As aesthetic treatments, like Botox in Vancouver, grow in popularity, there are increasing warnings about working with unlicensed providers. Choosing a medically trained professional is essential for safety, proper assessment, and natural-looking outcomes.
