What do slimming pens do to the body?

"Slimming pens" (such as Ozempic®, Wegovy®, Saxenda®, and Mounjaro®) work by reducing appetite and improving glycemic control.
Although they are effective for weight loss, their fast-acting fat loss can directly impact the structure of the skin and intimate tissues.

During the process, there are:

  • Significant reduction in subcutaneous fat (including in the vulva and labia majora).

  • Decreased support and natural filling of the tissues.

  • Hormonal and metabolic changes that interfere with the production of collagen and elastin.

  • Changes in lubrication and sensitivity, especially in women who already showed signs of vaginal laxity or early menopause.

These changes may result in vulvovaginal laxity, drooping of the labia majora, dryness and even discomfort in relationships.

Why weight loss affects the intimate area.

The female intimate area contains anatomical fat and elastic fibers responsible for giving volume and support to the vulva.
When rapid weight loss occurs, this fat is reduced—and along with it, there is a... thinning of the skin and loosening of the tissues.

It's the same principle that happens on the face and body: without internal support, the skin loses firmness and elasticity.
In intimate areas, this sagging can lead to:

  • Outer lips that are "shrunken" or disproportionate

  • Feeling of thin and dry skin

  • Decreased natural lubrication

  • Aesthetic and functional discomfort
