Ozempic Face #shorts

[MaggieRoseinRecovery]

I am a diabetic with a host of health issues. I’ve survived cancer twice. My doctor put me on Ozempic two years ago to help control my glucose levels.
I have no side effects and my numbers are perfect. It also motivated me to eat a healthier diet and move my body every day.
I do have a lot of loose skin. But the benefits outweigh the negatives.
Ozempic was made for diabetes

I lost both. But my blood pressure is at the healthiest. My knee no longer needs immediate surgery. My hip no longer needs immediate surgery. I can play with my 8 year old and go on school trips with him cause I can fit in the school seats now.

So saggish butt and saggish face is worth preserving my life.

There are many benefits of losing weight one of them is to regain mobility. Be able to walk longer distances. Less knee pain. Getting dress, bending down. I hope that in the long run this med is safe to take.

Losing a good amount of weight without Ozempic has the same facial results that happen with Ozempic. You're losing fat, so your previously plump face will now sag and look less filled-in and older. Not everyone will look like this, but MANY people will, especially if they are middle-aged or older.

People who use Ozempic only to lose some weight which is not medically necessary should really not do it. Also stock are experiencing shortages of Ozempic for people that really need it.

it should be noted that your face will fall naturally as well as you age, and thats okay.

I'm diabetic and ozempic was a life changer. A1c now 5. Down 70 lbs. Off blood pressure medication

[shespeex]

I naturally lost over 130 pounds- I discovered a huge amount of food allergies I had of which I wasn’t aware. I also have EDS. My face will never look like it did when I was at an unhealthy weight, or younger. That’s fine. I look like I’ve smiled a lot, and not slept well. Both true. We cannot outrun the bodies we are born into, but we can learn to love and accept them, with whatever grace we can.

Ozempic has helped me with PCOS related weight and hormonal issues that could not resolve with diet alone and then Long COVID fatigue - I’ve really enjoyed being on it. ❤

My dad is on this. He is a sever diabetic that got up to 400lbs. He is now down to 380. He started a month ago, and it's working wonderfully for him.

Had to rewatch got distracted by that perfect liner!

People act like facial fat loss is some new thing. I've seen people who have lost significant weight without Ozempic with the same effect on their face. I'm sure I will too when I get there. It happens with significant weight loss.

Always make sure to continue to workout and maintain muscle! Increase protein and don't just rely on medication.

54yrs old and on ozempic for almost a year, but I’ve been staying on the lowest dose possible ( .25mg ) this entire time and have lost the weight slowly which has allowed my skin to acclimate to the gradual weight loss.
Of course at 54 I don’t expect to look 30 any longer, however most guess my age at least 10yrs years younger and are always surprised to find out I’m in my fifties.

I'm 62 and went on the carnivore diet in January 2024. Losing 30lbs in 5 months felt fast but I was surprised that my face hasn't suffered much. Carnivore helps you lose weight as fast as ozempic so I'm glad I went in that direction.

I wish i didn't need the meds, but it's the only thing that's helped manage my sugar as a diabetic.

[kaheivi]

just a reminder that some overweight/obese patients are prescribed ozempic and similar medications by actual doctors. it’s used by diabetics and to combat obesity in patients. the people without prescriptions are the ones that should be criticized.
*of course it can be only accessed by prescription but people are purchasing it under the table while at an average weight/no valid reason for the medication. it’s honestly not very hard to find people reselling it.

There is some truth to saying you have to choose- but it’s hard to hear this from someone who isn’t that age yet. I’m 50 and I’ve lost weight. I get biostimulators in my face to produce collagen. You don’t have to choose these days. Biostimulators work great and support the fat pads without filling the face or distorting it like fillers.
People, there are a 100 ways to look great! Losing weight can save your life! It lowers blood pressure and has a whole host of other benefits. Remember that.

side GLP-1 meds not only help with weight, blood sugar, etc., but they have worked AMAZINGLY to stop smoking 😳 say what you want about these meds, but i've watched many family/friends that have had life transformations on this stuff.

I’ve been on Ozempic for a medical condition many years ago and unintentionally lost 100lbs in two years. I have such minor sagging in my face because the weight came off slowly and I was already doing all the right things, don’t crash diet or lose it fast because you’ll not look how you want!
