Hollywood is abuzz with allegations of “Ozempic face,” a term for “gaunt” features linked to rapid weight loss. Stars like Katy Perry, Lizzo, and John Goodman are currently facing scrutiny over their changing appearance allegedly linked to the Ozempic face phenomenon.
Ozempic is used in combination with diet and exercise to help manage blood sugar levels, the European Medicines Agency states. It can be used on its own or in addition to other diabetes medications, such as metformin, sulphonylureas, or insulin.
Ozempic can also help reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, or death in adults with type 2 diabetes and known heart disease.
