Check out this Galderma study that explains how facial volume loss that happens with weight loss can be supported with aesthetic treatments.


"A recent trial conducted by Galderma concluded that the Restylane Lyft or Contour injectable fillers in combination with the Sculptra injectables improve facial volume loss.

A recent trial conducted by Galderma concluded that the Restylane Lyft or Contour injectable fillers in combination with the Sculptra injectables improve facial volume loss associated with medication-driven weight loss,according to a Jan. 14 press release.


As individuals undergo rapid weight loss following GLP-1 use or other weight loss medication, many experience facial volume loss and increased skin elasticity. Loss of collagen, elastin and fatty acids lead to facial volume loss due to age as well. 

The trial examined the combination of Restylane Lyft or Contour with Sculptra for cheek augmentation and correcting contour deficiencies in patients with medication-driven weight loss.


According to the release, patients were treated with Sculptra and either Restylane Lyft or Contour for their first treatment and a second treatment of Sculptra. At week 4, patients had an optional touch-up of Restylane Lyft or Contour, and at week 8 an optional Sculptra treatment. 

Three months after patients’ final treatment, patients showed improved mid-face shape and contouring, along with improvements in cheek wrinkles


At week 4 of the trial, 80% of patients noticed their facial balance was improved."
