Weight loss is a journey celebrated for its positive impact on health and wellness. However, one aspect that often goes unnoticed is its effect on facial aesthetics. Significant weight loss can lead to facial descent and a decrease in volume, giving the face a more aged appearance. Fortunately, advances in aesthetic medicine offer solutions to restore facial volume and counteract these changes. This article delves into the transformative power of fillers for under-eye rejuvenation and around the mouth, as well as the role of Dysport in smoothing deep lines in the forehead and between the brows.
Understanding Facial Changes After Weight Loss
As individuals lose weight, they not only shed fat from the body but also from the face. This reduction in facial fat can lead to sagging skin, hollowed cheeks, and a decrease in overall facial volume. The skin, having lost its underlying fat padding, can appear more lax and contribute to an aged look. Additionally, the loss of volume emphasizes the presence of wrinkles and folds, particularly around the mouth and under the eyes, areas that play a critical role in one’s perceived age.
Restoring Volume with Fillers
Dermal fillers have emerged as a key solution to counteract the volume loss and facial descent associated with weight loss. These injectables can replenish lost volume and provide a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
- Tear Trough Rejuvenation: The under-eye area, or tear trough, is particularly prone to showing signs of aging following weight loss. Fillers can be carefully injected into this area to reduce the appearance of hollows and dark circles, resulting in a brighter, more rested look.
- Fillers Around the Mouth: Similarly, fillers can address the volume loss around the mouth. By filling in nasolabial folds (smile lines) and marionette lines, fillers can smooth out these areas for a softer, more youthful appearance.
Choosing the right type of filler and the precise amount is crucial for achieving natural-looking results. This requires the expertise of our skilled aesthetic practitioner, Loraine Savarese, RN, at Charmed Medispa who can customize the treatment to the individual’s facial structure and aesthetic goals.
Check out the results of our patient after having Dysport between the brows and forehead, filler to the under eye area for rejuvenation as well as filler in the folds around the mouth to lift and smooth her skin.

Smoothing Lines with Dysport
In addition to volume loss, weight loss can also make existing wrinkles more pronounced, particularly those on the forehead and between the brows. Dysport, a type of botulinum toxin, is designed to temporarily relax the muscles responsible for these expressions lines, resulting in a smoother, more relaxed appearance.
Dysport injections are a quick, minimally invasive treatment that can significantly reduce the appearance of deep lines and wrinkles. The results can last for several months, offering a rejuvenated look that complements the overall facial restoration.
Conclusion
Weight loss is an incredible achievement that brings numerous health benefits. However, the accompanying facial changes require a thoughtful approach to restore facial volume and youthfulness. Through the strategic use of fillers and Dysport, individuals can address these concerns and enjoy a rejuvenated appearance that reflects their inner health and vitality.
