GLP-1 face, hair shedding, dull skin? Here’s what’s actually happening — and how to get ahead of it. 👇
If you’re losing weight on a GLP-1 (Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro), you may have noticed changes in your hair, your face, or your skin.
The reassuring part: it’s usually not the medication damaging anything — it’s the pace of the weight loss. And that means you can support your body through it.
✦ Hair — The shedding is usually temporary (telogen effluvium), often tied to rapid weight loss + lower protein intake. Prioritize protein at every meal and ask your provider about iron, zinc + vitamin D.
✦ Volume — Facial fat can decrease faster than skin has time to adjust. A steadier pace may help — and regenerative treatments can help restore softness and support skin quality when you’re ready.
✦ Skin — Daily SPF helps protect collagen, while adequate protein + vitamin C support healthy skin. In-office collagen-stimulating treatments can also be part of your plan once your weight stabilizes.
You don’t have to choose between your health goals and looking like yourself. Our providers can build a plan that supports you through every stage. 🤎
