VOLULIFT – the antidote to ‘diet face’

The popularity of new and highly effective weight loss medications, has also given rise to some new symptoms and side effects that are finding prominence in the national press.

Impact of significant dieting on the face

Whether you’re using diet medication or not, one of the most common problems reported with rapid or significant weight loss is loss of volume to the face. This is caused by the loss of fat, which is ideal around the body, but not so welcome on the face. This syndrome, often referred to as ‘diet face’ or ‘Ozempic face’ causes the face to appear noticeably thinner.

New research has revealed that fat cells play an incredibly important role. Weight loss and ageing both result in damage not only to the fat cells, but also to the amount of collagen and elastin in the skin dermis. Fat cells in the skin have highly regenerative properties and hold the highest level of stem cells in the body. Therefore, fat cell damage not only results in diminished volume and sagging but also loss of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid (HA) too.

Loss of volume and structure

As a result of fat loss, you often see an increase in the visibility of  the nasolabial line (nose to lip lines), marionette lines (mouth to chin), and accordion lines (lines radiating across the cheeks). Eyes and cheeks may look hollow, and the reduction in the structural fat pads in the face can lead to facial sagging. Looser skin along the jawline may give a jowly appearance and can cause slackening of the skin under the chin.

The solution

We have two specific treatments for addressing the effects of diet face, plus some additional methods to further reduce wrinkles and tighten skin. The first is a new topical skincare product VOL.U.LIFT, which has been created to address the symptoms of weight loss to the face. The second is Sculptra, the subject our next article (coming soon).

THE NORUP CLINIC APPROACH

VOL.U.LIFT is an excellent product, we have tried it and are impressed by the results. It is a great place to start, but beyond this at-home product we have many treatments to address the deeper impact of Ozempic Face. Sculptra is our premium solution for loss of volume to the face, leading to hollows, sagging and wrinkles. This injectable treatment restores volume by naturally generating new collagen and elastin with the skin layers. We have HIFU skin tightening to help lift drooping jowls, plus Botox to relax wrinkles, and our range of skin peels and skin boosters to address the nuances of ageing and skin damage.
