Boosting collagen and facial volume post weight loss

November 08, 2024

Losing weight is a fantastic accomplishment, but it can sometimes come with unexpected changes—like a loss of facial volume. When you lose weight, the fat that contributes to a full, youthful appearance in your face can diminish, leading to a leaner, sometimes sunken look. Fortunately, there are medspa treatments designed to help boost collagen, restore volume, and enhance your appearance, so you can feel as confident in your skin as you do in your body!

 

Why does my face look different and sunken?

Loss of buccal fat may give the face a more aged or tired appearance. As fat is lost throughout the body, the face can experience significant volume reduction, leading to:

  • Hollow cheeks
  • Sunken eyes
  • Sagging skin along the jawline
  • Deepened wrinkles

Buccal fat provides structure and keeps the skin looking plump and youthful. When that fat diminishes rapidly, the underlying bone structure may become more pronounced.

First, know that you are beautiful and it may just take time for you to get used to your new look! However, you should also know that there are several treatments that can restore volume and give you your glow back. 

 

Top MedSpa Treatments to Restore Your Volume & Glow

Sculptra

Sculptra stimulates collagen production, gradually rebuilding volume in areas like the cheeks and temples. Results improve over 3-6 months and can last for up to two years, providing a natural, subtle lift.

Microneedling with PRP

Microneedling  promotes collagen and elastin production by creating micro-injuries in the skin. When combined with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), it accelerates healing, smooths fine lines, and improves skin elasticity, giving a firmer, more radiant appearance.

PDO Thread Lifts

PDO threads offer an instant, non-surgical lift by tightening sagging skin along the jawline and cheeks. Over time, the threads stimulate collagen, improving firmness and structure for long-lasting results.

BBL (BroadBand Light) Therapy by Sciton

The BBL treatment (and no, we’re NOT referring to a Brazilian Buttlift…) targets pigmentation, redness, and uneven skin tone by using light energy to rejuvenate the skin at a deeper level. It brightens the complexion, helping reverse the signs of aging and weight loss effects.

Halo Hybrid Fractional Laser Treatment

This fractional laser by Sciton improves skin texture by addressing fine lines, enlarged pores, and discoloration. Halo treatments trigger collagen production, enhancing the skin’s elasticity and providing a healthy, youthful glow.
