Celebrity Nutritionist Warns of ‘Ozempic Face’ Side Effects: Clients ‘Freaking Out’

Celebrity nutritionist Rose Ferguson has raised concerns about the side effects of weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy, which can lead to a condition known as ‘Ozempic face’. This phenomenon causes individuals to appear gaunt, with sunken eyes and saggy skin, affecting not only their body but also their facial features.

Ferguson, who has seen a surge in clients worried about their changing appearance due to these medications, emphasizes the importance of a healthy lifestyle over relying on such drugs for weight loss. She has observed more women seeking advice on how to stop taking these drugs out of fear of the impact on their looks.

Celebrities like Robbie Williams and Sharon Osbourne have been seen with facial weight loss, sparking discussions about the potential risks of using these medications for aesthetic purposes. Medical experts warn about the side effects of Ozempic, including digestive issues, fatigue, and muscle loss, as well as the cosmetic concerns related to ‘Ozempic face’.

While some believe that Ozempic may have health benefits beyond weight loss, such as reducing the risk of heart attack and stroke, the debate over the impact of these drugs on appearance continues. Cosmetic surgeons have reported an increase in requests for skin laxity treatments from individuals experiencing ‘Ozempic face’, highlighting the complex relationship between weight loss, health, and aesthetics.
