Skin Tightening After Weight Loss

Dramatic weight loss—whether achieved through lifestyle changes or medications like tirzepatide, semaglutide, and retatrutide —can be an incredible milestone. But for many, the aftermath includes sagging skin that can affect your confidence. Whether you’re noticing loose skin on your face, arms, abdomen, or thighs—or you’re dealing with common concerns like “Ozempic Face” or “Ozempic Butt”—we offer a range of safe and effective treatments.

Pure Medspa specializes in nonsurgical skin tightening for both the face and body, using proven, high-performance technologies and injectables to restore youthful volume and definition.

Common Concerns After Weight Loss

Sagging or lax skin can appear in many areas, including:

• Cheeks and jawline (“Ozempic Face”)
• Arms (“bat wings”)
• Abdomen and flanks
• Inner thighs and buttocks (“Ozempic Butt”)
• Neck and décolletage

These changes are especially common after rapid or significant weight loss, whether through GLP-1 medications like tirzepatide or bariatric surgery. While diet and exercise can help reduce fat, they do little to tighten stretched or aging skin.

Skin Tightening Treatment Options

Pure Medspa offers a comprehensive menu of skin-tightening treatments tailored to your unique needs. Our medical providers will evaluate your skin quality, location of concerns, and treatment goals to create a personalized plan.

Many patients benefit most from a combination approach—pairing treatments that address both volume loss and skin laxity for more comprehensive results.

Options include:

Laser Skin Tightening

Laser treatments such as HALO® or BTL ExionTM stimulate collagen production deep within the dermis, gradually improving skin texture and tightness. Our advanced laser platforms deliver controlled thermal energy to help firm loose areas and enhance overall tone with minimal downtime. Laser treatments are best for mild to moderate facial and body skin laxity.

Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling

RF microneedling combines the collagen-boosting effects of microneedling with radiofrequency energy for a deeper skin tightening effect. This is one of our most effective treatments for improving skin firmness and texture, especially for wrinkled, crepey, or sagging skin in areas such as the lower face, jawline, and abdomen.

EMFACE® Nonsurgical Facelift

Combining radiofrequency energy and HIFES™ technology, similar to the high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy used in EMSCULPT NEO®, EMFACE stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin and tones facial muscles. It’s ideal for patients who’ve lost facial volume after weight loss and seek a noninvasive alternative to surgery or fillers.

Dermal Fillers for Facial Volume Loss

“Ozempic Face” refers to the gaunt or hollow appearance some patients experience after rapid fat loss. Pure Medspa’s injectors expertly place dermal fillers, such as JUVÉDERM® and Restylane products, to restore lost volume in the cheeks, temples, and jawline, giving you a more refreshed, youthful appearance. We do not use fillers on the body, but they are a cornerstone of facial rejuvenation.

EMSCULPT NEO®

After significant weight loss, many patients notice a loss of muscle tone that can exaggerate skin laxity. EMSCULPT NEO helps rebuild and strengthen muscle through high-intensity electromagnetic energy. This can improve shape and lift, especially in areas prone to the “Ozempic Butt” look.
