Ozempic® has been a game-changer for many, helping to achieve significant weight loss and better manage diabetes.

At Dermoperfection in Birmingham, we specialise in skin laxity treatments that complement your weight loss journey with Ozempic® and other weight loss medications.
Why Does Skin Laxity Occur?
When you lose weight quickly, your skin may not have enough time to adjust to your new body shape, leading to loose or sagging skin. The stretchy fibres that make up your skins ability to spring back will even be broken dues to the excess weight previous or be damaged which impairs their function in tightening and toning back to your your new body shape.
Factors such as age, genetics, and the amount of weight loss and the speed in which you have lost the weight can all influence skin laxity. But you don’t have to let it diminish your confidence, we can help. The sooner that treatments are commenced to counteract the degrading of the elastin in the skin, and to stimulate tightening and toning of the tissues the better visible skin outcome you will see.
