"Managing Ozempic-Induced Sagging Skin: Plastic Surgery Solutions"

TL;DR Summary
Doctors are seeing an increase in patients needing to remove excess skin after rapid weight loss from using the prescription injection Ozempic, which is causing fat to dissipate at record speeds. Plastic surgeons warn that losing a significant amount of weight quickly can lead to sagging skin, and procedures to remove excess skin may be necessary all over the body. It's advised to ensure that the patient has finished losing weight before considering skin removal surgery, and adopting a healthy lifestyle, including exercise, can also help tighten the skin.
