Ozempic butt is a phrase referring to sagging skin and volume loss in the buttocks resulting from rapid weight loss, particularly from GLP-1 weight loss medications. As rapid weight loss occurs, many people notice a loss of volume in their buttocks, causing a flattened or deflated appearance. Fortunately, there are many treatments available to help restore a full and sculpted behind, helping each individual complete their weight loss transformation and refine the appearance of their buttocks.

About Ozempic Butt

Ozempic butt is characterized by a deflated appearance and loose, sagging skin around the buttocks. Semaglutide is a medication that was originally designed to help manage type 2 diabetes but became largely popular for its weight-loss effects. This injectable medication is FDA-approved and is a Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. This means that it helps control the release and sensitivity to insulin while enhancing feelings of fullness after eating smaller portions. (1)

Ozempic butt manifests after patients lose significant amounts of weight and the skin does not retract, causing it to hang loosely around the body. Dr. Lee can perform a number of both surgical and non-surgical treatments to help each patient complete their weight-loss journey and achieve the figure they have been working hard to achieve.

Benefits of Ozempic Butt Treatment

There are several benefits patients can experience after addressing their Ozempic butt, including:

  • Enhanced Figure: Achieving a more desirable buttocks shape and roundness can create a more proportionate and sculpted appearance.
  • Increased Confidence: Many patients report an improvement in their self-esteem after seeing the results of their treatment, which can lead to a greater sense of confidence.
  • Custom Solutions: Each treatment plan is fully tailored to meet each patient’s personal goals, taking into account their proportions, skin condition, and aesthetic preferences.
  • Minimally Invasive Options: We offer several non-surgical treatments, each of which offers a reduced recovery time.
  • Cohesive Weight Loss Results: Eliminating loose skin and enhancing the shape and fullness of the buttocks can complement the weight-loss effects achieved while on GLP-1 medication.
  • Natural-Looking Outcomes: Dr. Lee’s specialized techniques ensure results that appear cohesive with your anatomy and weight loss progress.
  • Versatile Treatments: Each treatment may be combined with other contouring treatments to address multiple parts of the body at once.

Suitable Candidates

Ideal candidates for our Ozempic butt treatments include patients who have recently undergone significant weight loss and wish to enhance the appearance of their buttocks. Those with loose, sagging, or hanging skin around their buttocks from sources other than weight loss may also benefit from treatment.

Ideal candidates should be in good health and free from conditions that could interfere with healing. Realistic expectations must be held regarding what each of our treatments may accomplish. Dr. Lee will determine each patient’s candidacy for each Ozempic butt treatment during their personal consultation.

Preparation

Preparation can vary depending on the treatment chosen. Dr. Lee will provide each patient with a set of personalized pre-treatment instructions during their consultation to help them prepare for their procedure.

Patients may be asked to discontinue using certain medications and herbal supplements containing blood-thinning properties. Alcohol consumption should be avoided before and after the procedure, and nicotine use should be completely ceased. If anesthesia is used, transportation to and from the procedure should be arranged. Any prescriptions should also be filled in advance.

Procedure

We offer several procedures to help each patient enhance their figure, including the Brazilian Butt Lift, post-weight loss surgery, Morpheus8, BodyTite, and QuantumRF. To learn more about other procedures you may benefit from, we encourage you to read Dr. Lee’s blog!

Brazilian Butt Lift

Brazilian Butt Lifts, or BBLs, are a popular procedure designed to enhance the shape and fullness of the buttocks. This procedure uses liposuction techniques to harvest fat from other parts of the body, where it is then processed and reinjected into the body. This procedure offers dual benefits, leaving other parts of the body toned while increasing butt volume. This can help restore volume and reduce the flattened appearance caused by rapid weight loss.

After Weight Loss Surgery

After weight loss surgery is a collection of different procedures designed to reduce the amount of fat or the appearance of loose skin around the body. Some of the treatments used to address Ozempic butt include:

  • Thigh Lift: Also known as thighplasty, thigh lifts remove excess skin from the inner and outer thighs to create a smoother, more refined contour.
  • Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty): Tummy tucks tighten the abdominal muscles and remove extra skin for a slimmer midsection.

Morpheus8

Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive treatment that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen production. This helps improve skin texture, tone, firmness, and elasticity in the treated area. This not only helps enhance the appearance of the buttocks. This treatment is ideal for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity who want to avoid surgery.

BodyTite

BodyTite is a cutting-edge treatment that uses radiofrequency-assisted liposuction to tighten the skin and reduce fat in the body. (2) This procedure is less invasive than traditional liposuction, reducing scarring and recovery times. Dr. Lee will carefully insert one probe under the skin’s surface while another sits on top. The probes will transmit the RF energy, melting fat and tightening the skin. From there, the fat is suctioned out. This can effectively tighten the skin and reduce stubborn fat, resulting in a more defined and lifted buttock appearance.

Quantum RF

QuantumRF is a nonsurgical procedure that uses RF energy to help restore firmness and tightness to the skin. This treatment uses microneedling combined with RF energy to create controlled micro-injuries, stimulating the body’s natural collagen production and skin regeneration. This triggers neocollagenesis, improving the texture, tone, elasticity, and health of the skin. As collagen builds in your rear, your buttocks will take on an improved, firmer appearance. Most patients see the best response with this treatment after a series of regular sessions.

Recovery

Each patient’s recovery timeline will differ, depending on the treatment performed and each patient’s healing response. Patients may need to take time away from work and other commitments, or may be asked to avoid certain activities. Dr. Lee will provide comprehensive recovery instructions to each individual based on their treatment plan during their consultation. Dr. Lee may also ask certain patients to return for follow-up visits to ensure they are healing and progressing as expected.
