This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I had to google "Ozempic face" because I've apparently been living under a rock.
In case anyone else was under a rock...
From Cleveland Clinic:
It's worth noting that Ozempic face is a side effect of rapid weight loss, not a side effect of Ozempic.
Was going to quote just that, from the same article:
‘Ozempic face’ isn’t a side effect of the medication itself. Rather, it’s a side effect of the rapid weight loss the medication can bring.
Oh wait, I did anyway.
It's a sign of the times that the effects of rapid weight loss are attributed to a drug since most people don't know what it looks like!
People don't experience rapid weight loss because, in general, it's not a good thing
Surely, most overweight people simply never lose the weight... but losing weight rapidly is itself unhealthy and most people who experience rapid weight loss do so because of trauma or disease
Thanks for pointing that out. I lost about 30lbs and my face kinda took on some of those qualities. Especially the prominent bone thing and sunken eyes.
Isn't that just how you would've looked like if you were 30lbs lighter all along? The sagging skin is due to weight loss sure, but your bones definitely didn't change.
When you lose weight that fast the fat around your body isn't removed equally, and you still have the extra skin left once the weight is gone. It takes a few months to a year to have everything even out.
people were pointing out the cast of "wicked" , said they were all on GLP-1.
Thank you for saving me from searching it up.
TIL about ozenpic face being what happens when you lose weight and the skin doesn't tighten up after removing the excess
I had a buddy I went to college with who I saw 4-5 years later who lost like 300+ sounds and looked like that. Well before ozenpic.
it's just the effect of sudden weight loss.
Is this any different from how one starts to look as they grow older in age?
Thank you
That is 2 words (or 3 depending how you count the abbreviation). You'd think a dictionary could get that right.
Fun fact: linguists don't actually know what defines a "word"
Why is this downvoted, it's actually a real thing
Linguists struggle to find an exact definition of what a word is because speakers of different languages have different opinions of what a word is, and some languages make the distinction unclear
Neither of those are 1 word. At least hyphen them to pretend they're one word.
Personally I think it should have been six seven
But it’s not a word.
