@emcorreia7: 💉 Losing weight on a GLP-1? Your skin, hair, and nails can change too. Some changes people may notice include: 💇‍♀️ Hair shedding — rapid weight loss can trigger telogen effluvium (stress induced hair loss) , and inadequate protein or other nutritional deficiencies can contribute to hair loss as well. 👩 Facial hollowing — loss of facial fat can make the cheeks and temples appear more hollow and jowls appear more prominent. 〰️ Loose, crepey skin — rapid or significant weight loss can leave behind skin that appears looser or less firm. 💧 Dry skin + brittle nails — these can be associated with changes in nutrition and hydration. The takeaway? While taking a GLP-1, make your nutrition count. Prioritize nutrient-dense foods and adequate protein, vitamins, minerals, and hydration. 🥗🍳💧 Not every skin or hair change is caused by the medication itself, the rapid weight loss and nutritional status plays role too. #GLP1 #GLP1WeightLoss #SkinHealth #BoardCertifiedDermatologist #MedicalEducation
