It is expected that the demand for cosmetic medicine increases, such as the intensity of the body’s skin and the injection of the surrounded face, which is associated with the weight loss forms generated by the new generation of obesity and based on the hormone of the digestive system “GLB -1”.
The market analysis was noticed during the “Imakas” conference for skin diseases and plastic surgery that concluded Saturday in Paris that “the drugs associated with the GLB -1 drugs stimulate the demand in aesthetic medicine, especially with regard to post-weight loss treatments, such as the skin, the regeneration of the surface of the skin and the injection of the skin The face and the lift of the body. “
The sector believes that “this scientific revolution provides very promising economic horizons,” especially in “the United States, where the demand is very large on the GLB -1 drugs”, given that it is the first market in which I allow these treatments to lose weight.
The GLP-1 slimming products take their name from a hormone secreted by the intestine that sends a saturated signal to the brain.
The popularity of these drugs increased very quickly, similar to “Wegovy” from “Novbound” from “Elay Lily”, due to its proven effectiveness, as it leads to a loss of between 15% and 20% of The weight is on average within 16 to 18 months, and these drugs have a large audience on social networks, although they have some side effects, including nausea.
The Boston Concing Consulting company expected that the drug-based drugs will be a “billion dollar chance of” a cosmetic medicine sector “by 2029”, after it represented $ 700 million in 2024.
The consulting company estimated between 2 and 3%, the growth expected this year for revenue from the injection of renovated materials, botulinom (botox) and hyaluronic acid, as well as skin tightening techniques, “thanks to users of drugs +GLB-1 +”.
Ozimbi buttocks
The Secretary -General of the French Association of Plastic Surgeons, Michel Ruwaif, explained that “the medical community believes that the form of this type of medicine is not completely identical to the familiar weight loss”, as “the face melts, as happens when aging.”
Dermatologists have the same impression, as the President of the National Society for Beauty related to dermatology Martin Pasperiah noticed in a statement to the French Press Agency for those who lost weight using these drugs that “their faces look somewhat sad, and somewhat tired.”
In Pakistan, her colleague, Shahr Banu, indicated that these people are characterized by “double chin”, a “exact appearance” of the face, and what she called the “Ozimbian buttocks”, that is, those that sagging after taking this medicine.
However, losing weight by 15 and 20 kilograms due to the GLP-1 drugs is less than the weight that is lost after obesity surgery “that leads to a loss of 30 to 40 kilograms, sometimes more”, and causes “great damage to the skin”, according to Dr. Ruweven.
But if the extra weight is not ancient and the skin is sufficiently flexible, some of those who were obese and lost weight will get “good results without surgery” or “once diluted surgery,” according to the plastic surgeon Ruaweif.
No magic stick
Martin Pasperiah explained that it is possible to use other techniques to conduct corrections, including “trying to re -cohesion of the skin”, “stimulating cells and tissues”, “the use of moisturizers, hyaluronic acid and” collagen “extracts.
“Often, it is a gradual and frequent mixture of techniques that give a good result,” she added, including radio frequency devices and ultrasound technologies. “But the sessions are” somewhat long and expensive. “
She pointed out that her “few” patients who were treated with “GLB -1” are intended to “correct the body but also for the face”, as “massage the skin works to stimulate fibrous cells, which is the cell that produces collagen and flexible tissues”, but “if it is The skin is very flabby, the massage will not be enough. “
Although these drugs based on the GLP-1 enjoy “almost a magic side” due to her great effectiveness, the doctor saw that “there is no magic stick or medicine to reshape everything.”
Specialists who told Agence France -Presse stressed the importance of maintaining weight, training muscle and following a suitable diet.
