Medical experts have disclosed a fresh symptom associated with a specific treatment. - A weight-loss injection may lead to drooping breasts.
The Ozempic weight loss injection reportedly causes boobs to droop and sag, as shared by a US medical professional.
Naturally, this happens when losing weight appears to leave the breast area looking saggy. Since the breast is primarily composed of 80% fatty tissue, the impact of Ozempic's significant weight loss can make the situation appear worse.
Dr. Ronald F. Rosso, medical director at Peninsula Plastic Surgery in California, explained to Healthline that a sudden decrease in fatty tissue causes the skin covering to loosen up, leading to a droopy breast appearance. Additionally, nipple direction might shift downwards.
If you're uncomfortable with the sag, both Dr. Elie Levine, the chief of plastic surgery at Plastic Surgery & Dermatology of NYC PLLC, and Dr. Costa recommend using a supportive bra. This bra type can help prevent unwanted movement and alleviate discomfort. Additionally, breast lift surgery can tighten up the skin, reposition tissue, and raise the nipple.
For optimal results, though, make sure you've reached and maintained your desired weight before considering plastic surgery. A 2022 study revealed that participants gained back two-thirds of their weight loss within the first year of stopping GLP-1 treatment. Your body could change dramatically after Ozempic, so it's important to accept any volume or shape compromises before attempting to alter it. Embrace your new look by purchasing clothes that fit your new size and shape, creating a taking-pride-in-yourself moment.
