What Is GLP-1 Post-Weight Loss Facial and Body Rejuvenation
Understanding what happens when you stop these medications helps you and your healthcare provider make informed decisions about your long-term treatment plan
Red Flags to Watch For If you are taking GLP-1s, these warning signs suggest the medication may be interfering with recovery: Using medication effects as justification to eat less than planned or skip meals Feeling relief at having a medical reason not to eat Increased eating disorder thoughts about food, weight, or body image Return of any eating disorder behaviors (restriction beyond medication effects, purging, excessive exercise, body checking) Hiding eating patterns or medication use from your treatment team Rapid or excessive weight loss Increased anxiety around food or eating situations If you notice any of these, talk to your treatment team immediately
For example, GLP-1 increases sympathetic nervous system activity [115] and energy expenditure in animal experiments [116,117], but not in humans with T2D or obesity [[118], [119], [120], [121], [122]]
