Doctors have issued a warning about a possible ‘Ozempic aftermath’ after a simulation showing the side effects has left people feeling disturbed.

It’s the weight loss drug that has taken social media by storm but how much do we know about the actual purpose of the medication?

According to its official website, Ozempic is actually ‘not a weight loss drug’ and is instead meant to be used as ‘a medicine for adults with Type-2 diabetes’.

In order for it to work, the drug is administered as an injectable medication which the site says should be used ‘along with diet and exercise to improve blood sugar (glucose) in adults with type 2 diabetes’.

It is purported to ‘reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events such as heart attack, stroke, or death in adults with type 2 diabetes with known heart disease’.

However, that isn’t why Ozempic has been making headlines recently as many celebrities have admitted to taking the drug in order to lose weight.

Now, experts Dr Emma Cunningham and Dr Sepideh Jalali have claimed that patients who are using Ozempic have been reporting various issues.

Dr Cunningham, an advanced aesthetics specialist at Dr Emma Clinics, told the Sun that her clients have experienced something known as ‘GLP-1 Face’.

This relates to concerns surrounding loose skin in the face and body area, believed to be part of the ‘Ozempic aftermath’.

She said: “Fat loss in the face, torso, and arms can leave the skin looking loose and deflated.

“Although some might think this is a positive outlook on successful results, it can leave individuals feeling self-conscious about their appearance as their natural body contours are no longer there.”

Meanwhile, Dr Sepideh, who is a dentist at The Tooth Club, added that ‘GLP-1 causes changes in the way food is processed by the stomach’.

As well as causing nausea, she said: “Many are unaware that a hidden side effect of changing dietary habits and the body's reaction to meditation can cause dry mouth, which can lead to plaque buildup and a high risk of tooth decay.

“Being linked to 'Ozempic face' inducing changes to the mouth, teeth, gums and surrounding facial structures due to the rapid weight loss in the fat pads in these areas.

“The drop is caused by skin sagging, creating an appearance of hollow cheeks or a prematurely aged look.”

A simulation video shared on YouTube has also got a lot of people talking about the possible side effects that can come with taking Ozempic medication.

In the clip, the video explains: “Once Ozempic is in your bloodstream, it activates the parts of the brain that make you feel full, reducing your appetite.

“It also stabilizes your blood sugar, stopping sudden cravings. Then it slows down how fast your stomach empties food, which keeps you feeling full for longer after a meal.

“This causes you to lose weight as you eat less. But it can make some people feel sick and even give them diarrhoea.”

LADbible Group has contacted Novo Nordisk, Ozempic’s manufacturer, for comment.
