A MACS Lift will restore the youthful appearance of your lower face and neck by:
- Re-tightening the skin from your mid-face to the lower section down the jawline and underneath your chin. This will effectively erase the appearance of jowls, and other wrinkles, like those around your nose and mouth.
- Ozempic Face Correction addresses the muscular structure beneath your skin, making this procedure effective and giving you long-lasting results. Your lower face and neck will return to a normal, natural appearance.
- Combating the effects caused by sudden fat loss, creating laxity of the skin on your face and neck.
- The MACS lift has a shorter recovery. Because it can be completed with smaller, minimal incisions, patients experience less swelling after their procedure, which allows them to return to their usual schedules sooner than a traditional lower face or neck lift.
- Leave little to no scarring.
- Restores your naturally youthful look without looking like something was “done.”
After Ozempic Weight Loss Body Contouring
Advanced body contouring can be an additional treatment after your Ozempic weight loss to help you to achieve your desired body shape. Dr. Lynch will target areas of fat and excess skin that may not have responded well to the weight loss alone. Contouring surgery can address all areas of the body and face and helps with skin laxity, which often occurs after taking Ozempic.

The term Ozempic face describes the gaunt appearance of one’s face after using the injected drug Ozempic or Tirzepatide. The falling of one’s facial structure is caused, in part, by the sudden loss of fat while losing weight.
Maryland’s Top Facial Specialist, Dr. Sheilah A. Lynch, a board-certified plastic surgeon, can treat this common Ozempic side effect: deflated key areas of your face, which results in our patient looking more aged. Dr. Lynch is considered one of the top 10 plastic surgeons in Maryland.
Symptoms of an Ozempic Face
Hollowed temples, cheeks, and eyes: The eyes will appear deeper set, cheeks that cave inward and lose the roundness of youth. The temple skin is thin and indented inward.
Hanging skin: The facial skin, losing all its facial fat support, will literally hang off the face, resulting in loose, paper-thin, crepey, and wrinkled skin.
Deep lines around the mouth: The skin folds around the mouth will deepen with weight loss and gravitational changes in the face.
Jowling: The lower face skin can hang over the jawline, creating a “jowl.”
Wrinkles and loose skin on your neck: The neck skin hangs and creases. The platysma muscle can form bands, resulting in a loss of the sharp angle of the neck. The jawline is no more.

After Ozempic Weight Loss Body Contouring
Advanced body contouring can be an additional treatment after your Ozempic weight loss to help you to achieve your desired body shape. Dr. Lynch will target areas of fat and excess skin that may not have responded well to the weight loss alone. Contouring surgery can address all areas of the body and face and helps with skin laxity, which often occurs after taking Ozempic.
The term OZEMPIC FACE refers to the changes in your facial / neck appearance that happen after rapid weight loss, especially when using medications such as Ozempic (semaglutide).
Ozempic face happens due to rapid facial fat loss, as sudden subcutaneous fat loss quickly reduces the face's fullness, making the skin less elastic and more prone to sagging, lines, and accelerated aging.
"Ozempic face" describes the hollow or sunken look resulting from the loss of facial fat, which makes the face /neck appear prematurely aged. The loss of fat, combined with skin laxity, leads to a gaunt appearance that many patients then ask, "Can Ozempic Face Be Reversed?"
Correcting Ozempic face has several options, both surgical and non-surgical, to reduce facial and neck sagging. “For many of my patients experiencing the loss of facial fullness and skin sagging from Ozempic, we can offer a combination of treatments to help restore their face and neck appearance,” says facial expert surgeon, Dr. Sheilah A. Lynch. Non-surgical options can temporarily restore your facial fullness, while surgical procedures will have a more dramatic, long-term effect, involving tightening the skin, adding back facial fat, and contouring the shape of your face and neck.

Ozempic face occurs when rapid weight loss causes sunken cheeks, hollow temples, a change in skin texture, and a gaunt overall appearance. The skin on the face and neck appears loose and saggy around the eyes and jawline due to the rapid reduction in facial fat.
This loss of fullness or volume also deepens fine lines and wrinkles, making the person look older than their actual age as well as unhealthy.
Symptoms include gauntness, sunken cheeks, wrinkles, and loose skin on the face and neck.
Actually, Ozempic face isn’t always a side effect of taking the medication; it's the result of rapid weight loss.
Ozempic face is not a medical term; it is also not limited to taking Ozempic. Other weight loss medications and surgeries can have the same effect.
Facial changes can also happen after having bariatric surgery; however, they’re often associated with weight loss medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide.
Unfortunately, it does not. While loose skin may tighten slightly over time, most patients will not see significant improvement without professional help.
For noticeable, effective, and long-lasting results, procedures such as cosmetic fillers, skin tightening and removal, face- neck lifts, and/or fat transfers back to the face are necessary.
During rapid weight loss, the fat pads in your face shrink due to weight-loss medication. You may notice your cheeks sinking, the facial folds running from your nose to your mouth deepening as lines begin to show, the temples looking hollow, and jowls can start to appear.
Because there is no fat to fill or prop the skin up, the skin starts to droop, causing the face to look older. To fix these issues, Dr. Lynch uses several treatments to restore the lost facial and neck support.
Some Non-Surgical Options We Offer Are:
- Cosmetic Fillers: Can be injected into areas of volume loss to re-plump or fill out and smooth wrinkles, folds, and hollow areas. Common places to restore the natural appearance include temples, cheeks, under eyes, around the nose, jawline, and chin.
- RF Microneedling: A treatment using radio-frequency, combined with tiny needles, to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin to induce a wound-healing response that boosts collagen and elastin in the patient's neck and face.
Surgical Options Can Include:
- Facelift: Dr. Lynch offers a variety of different facelift surgical procedures. One of these procedures, called a MACS LIFT, can help Ozempic Face.
- Lower Face / Neck Lift: These procedures are similar to a facelift but focused on the lower face and neck area. Depending on the severity of the hanging skin, a lower face/neck lift can also include the tightening of the platysma bands. Generally, a lower face/neck lift tightens loose neck skin and removes any excess fat under the chin/jawline.
Fat Grafting - Fat Transfer: After rapid weight loss, effects can appear on your lower face & neck. As your facial skin stretches, the jawline loses its straight contour, and facial lines appear between the nose and mouth. The most noticeable is the skin around the neck losing its elasticity and excess folds forming.
For major facial volume loss, fat grafting offers a longer term solution. When your own fat is injected into the depleted areas, such as your cheeks, temples, under eyes, etc., the results look soft, natural, and they are permanent.
Dr. Lynch can add fat (fat transfer-grafting) to replace the volume you've lost. Facial fat transfer or fat grafting restores attractiveness to your face by filling in cheek contours and adding volume at the chin and under the eyes.
It can treat mild sagging skin and reverse some changes in the face.
