SUPPORT YOUR SKIN DURING WEIGHT LOSS: THE POWER OF INTEGRATED SKINCARE WITH SKINCEUTICALS AND SOFWAVE™

GLP-1 agonists, for example Wegovy, Mounjaro and Ozempic, have transformed the way many people achieve weight loss, offering effective and sustainable results.
However, as the body changes, the skin can sometimes struggle to keep up. Rapid weight loss can lead to concerns such as laxity, loss of facial volume, and changes in texture and tone.
At Moreton Aesthetics, I offer a tailored, integrated skincare approach combining advanced SkinCeuticals products with Sofwave™ treatments to support your skin through every stage of your weight loss journey.
TACKLE LAXITY.
Why Skin Health Matters During GLP-1 Weight Loss
GLP-1 medications work by suppressing appetite and supporting metabolic changes, which often results in a significant reduction in weight. While this can have life-changing benefits for overall health, the skin may not always adapt at the same pace as the body.
Common skin changes include:
Skin laxity – As facial fat pads reduce and collagen levels drop with age, the skin may begin to sag, particularly around the jawline, neck, and mid-face.
Textural changes – Weight loss can highlight fine lines and wrinkles that were previously less noticeable.
Dullness or uneven tone – Skin may appear less radiant if the barrier function becomes compromised during rapid body changes.
This is why a comprehensive skincare strategy—one that combines professional in-clinic treatments with scientifically backed homecare—is essential to maintain skin quality and prevent premature ageing during weight loss.
Sofwave™ is one of the most effective non-surgical solutions for addressing skin laxity, especially in patients experiencing changes following weight loss. This innovative ultrasound technology stimulates new collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin production within the mid-dermis, improving firmness, elasticity, and lift.
The benefits of Sofwave™ during GLP-1 weight loss include:
Jawline definition: Sofwave™ helps tighten the lower face, reducing jowling and restoring youthful contours.
Neck and submental improvement: Many patients notice skin laxity under the chin as they lose weight—Sofwave™ offers natural-looking tightening without downtime.
Upper face rejuvenation: Sofwave™ can also soften lines on the forehead, around the eyes, and lift the brows, maintaining balance and harmony in facial features.
No downtime: Treatment is quick, comfortable, and requires no interruption to your daily routine—perfect for those focusing on their health and lifestyle goals.
I often recommend Sofwave™ as a foundational treatment for patients on GLP-1 agonists, as it provides structural support for the skin while weight loss occurs, helping to prevent sagging rather than simply reacting to it later.
SkinCeuticals: Medical-Grade Skincare for Home Support
In-clinic treatments deliver powerful results, but daily skincare plays a crucial role in maintaining skin quality between sessions. SkinCeuticals is a globally renowned, science-led skincare brand with clinically proven formulas that target ageing, pigmentation, and loss of firmness.
I particularly recommend AGE Interrupter Advanced, AGE Interrupter Ultra Serum, and a tailored SkinCeuticals regime to support skin undergoing change.
AGE Interrupter Advanced
This powerful moisturiser targets visible signs of ageing caused by Advanced Glycation End-Products (AGEs), which accelerate collagen breakdown. It helps restore skin firmness, elasticity, and thickness, making it ideal for patients who may experience laxity as facial volume reduces during weight loss.
AGE Interrupter Ultra Serum
This advanced serum is designed to visibly improve sagging, crepiness, and loss of density, especially in mature skin. Its lightweight texture makes it perfect for layering under moisturiser, and it helps reinforce the skin barrier, improving resilience and bounce.
When used together, these formulas strengthen and support the skin’s structure, complementing the lifting effects of Sofwave™ and helping to slow the visible impact of rapid weight loss on the face.
The Benefits of an Integrated Skincare Approach
Aesthetic results are always most successful when they’re planned holistically. I combine targeted in-clinic treatments like Sofwave™ with medical-grade skincare for a synergistic effect.
Here’s why this approach works so well:
Addresses multiple layers of the skin: Sofwave™ targets the dermis, while SkinCeuticals products support the epidermis and barrier.
Boosts treatment results: Healthy, well-nourished skin responds better to energy-based treatments.
Supports long-term maintenance: Consistent skincare helps prolong collagen stimulation and maintains firmness after Sofwave™ sessions.
Tailored to your needs: Every patient’s skin responds differently to weight loss. By combining modalities, we can adjust and personalise treatment for optimal results.
When to Start Treatment
Many patients find it beneficial to start their integrated skincare journey early, ideally soon after beginning GLP-1 medication. This allows collagen stimulation and barrier strengthening to work proactively, reducing the risk of sagging or dullness before it becomes a visible concern.
However, it’s never too late to start. Whether you’re midway through your weight loss journey or have already achieved your goals, Sofwave™ and SkinCeuticals can help restore firmness and vitality to your skin.
