90-Day Progress Report

Age 41GLP-1 User40 lb Weight Loss
A Skincare Skeptic Who Wasn’t Expecting to Be Impressed

After losing 40 pounds on a GLP-1 medication, Meg noticed deeper nasolabial folds, less

plumpness, and an overall loss of glow — changes that hit her confidence hard. She was already

running a serious skincare routine: vitamin C, tretinoin, spironolactone, EltaMD, CeraVe. She

didn’t think a non-pharmaceutical product could surprise her.

Within 14 days, she noticed visibly shallower nasolabial creases, improved texture, and skin that

felt “bouncy” for the first time. By Day 60, her skin looked denser, more resilient, and structurally

more supported — especially under her eyes and along her jawline.

Baseline

What was happening at day 1

Meg came in with an advanced existing routine and high standards. Despite her consistency,

GLP-1-related weight loss had introduced changes her current products couldn’t address:

• Deeper nasolabial folds that were impacting her confidence

• Overall decrease in skin plumpness and glow

• Under-eye crepiness and shadowing

• Hormonal cystic acne that lingered for weeks

Important: Meg’s skin was already well cared for. This was not a “damaged skin” transformation — it was good skin pushed beyond what surface-level products could support.
Their experience

What Meg reported

Day 30
First noticeable shift
  • Skin felt softer, more “bouncy,” and noticeably more hydrated
  • Nasolabial creases appeared shallower
  • Under-eye wrinkles showed early improvement
  • Makeup absorbed better and no longer sat in creases
  • Felt more confident without makeup after just two weeks
Day 60
Visible improvements
  • Clear improvement in skin texture and overall plumpness
  • Visible decrease in nasolabial fold depth — her biggest confidence concern
  • Unexpected improvement in acne, redness, and inflammation
  • Hormonal cystic breakouts resolving faster than usual
  • Skin appearing calmer overall with less baseline irritation

Day 90
Meaningful changes
  • Biggest improvements in mid-cheek, under-eyes, and around the mouth
  • Jawline laxity from weight loss looked more supported
  • Under-eye area showed the most dramatic change — less shadowing, less crepiness, more

hydration

  • Cheek texture more uniform, pores less shadowed
  • Overall tone calmer — less background redness around mouth, chin, and lower cheeks
  • IG followers began asking about her skincare routine unprompted
“I did not anticipate these results given how loyal I am to my usual products, and yet here I am wondering how I can live without this going forward.”
-- Meg, 90-day user
Unexpected benefit

Resilience Through Winter + Active Lifestyle

Meg snowboards regularly and puts her skin through harsh conditions. She typically has to pull

back on actives like vitamin C during winter. With this protocol, her skin’s resilience actually

improved — fewer reactive episodes and faster recovery when they did occur.
