@the.living.room.pod: GLP-1 medications may be changing more than just body weight. According to Dr. Saranya Wyles, rapid weight loss from GLP-1 medications can also lead to significant facial fat and soft tissue loss. Dr. Wyles explains that for roughly every 20 pounds lost on GLP-1s, patients may experience around 10% facial fat loss — something many people are now referring to as “GLP-1 face.” Why does it happen? As the body loses weight quickly, it can reduce volume in the hypodermis — the deeper layer of tissue that helps support facial structure and skin appearance. It’s an important reminder that skin health, aging, metabolism, and weight loss are all deeply interconnected. A fascinating conversation on The LIVING Room Podcast exploring the science behind skin longevity, out now.
