- OB-GYN Sherry Ross says rapid weight loss can cause skin laxity throughout the body, including the pubic mons and inner and outer labia.
- Clinicians report more requests for vaginal rejuvenation, with options such as labia puffing using dermal fillers or fat grafting, labiaplasty, and vaginal tightening.
- Los Angeles OB-GYN Michael Tahery notes filler results may last up to eight months, and Australian plastic surgeon Justin Perron says he now sees several such consultations each week.
- Indian experts caution there is no direct evidence linking semaglutide to vaginal dryness and note weight loss can improve incontinence, urging medically supervised care and evaluation for any concerning changes.
