Introduction: Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists, such as semaglutide, have revolutionized the treatment of diabetes and obesity by promoting significant weight loss through incretin effects. However, rapid weight reduction induced by these medications often leads to esthetic challenges, including facial volume loss, skin laxity, and body contour irregularities. This commentary reviews the esthetic consequences of GLP‐1‐induced weight loss and explores solutions for managing these concerns in clinical practice. Methods: This review synthesizes available literature and clinical observations to identify key esthetic concerns associated with GLP‐1‐induced weight loss. It examines various treatment modalities, including dermal fillers, biostimulatory agents, energy‐based devices, and surgical procedures. The discussion highlights gaps in empirical data, optimal timing for interventions, and the need for personalized, multimodal treatment strategies. Imaging tools and psychological support are also considered as complementary approaches. Conclusion: As GLP‐1 agonists become a cornerstone in obesity management, their esthetic implications necessitate a proactive response from esthetic practitioners. Effective management of facial volume loss, skin laxity, and body contour challenges requires a combination of injectable treatments, energy‐based devices, and, in some cases, surgical interventions. Future research should focus on understanding the molecular mechanisms of skin and fat changes and developing standardized guidelines for treating this unique patient population. Additionally, a holistic approach that addresses both physical and psychological outcomes is critical to ensuring patient satisfaction and long‐term well‐being.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are extensively utilized in aesthetic medicine due to their biocompatibility, reversibility, and effectiveness in enhancing skin hydration, volume, and overall appearance. These fillers are predominantly produced through microbial fermentation, followed by a critical cross-linking process that enhances their longevity by resisting enzymatic degradation. This review provides a thorough examination of the manufacturing processes that differentiate HA fillers, with particular attention to the distinctions between biphasic and monophasic variants. Unlike previous studies, this review emphasizes the specific cross-linking techniques and their substantial impact on the fillers’ rheological properties, such as elasticity and cohesiveness, which are crucial to their clinical performance and patient outcomes. Additionally, the review offers a comprehensive comparison of HA fillers with non-HA alternatives, including calcium hydroxylapatite, poly-l-lactic acid, and polymethyl methacrylate, highlighting the unique advantages and potential complications associated with each type. By presenting novel insights into the latest advancements and challenges in filler technology, this review aims to provide clinicians with a deeper understanding of filler properties, thereby guiding them in making informed decisions to optimize patient safety and aesthetic results.

Background: The complex ecosystem of the skin microbiome is essential for skin health by acting as a primary defense against infections, regulating immune responses, and maintaining barrier integrity. This literature review aims to consolidate existing information on the skin microbiome, focusing on its composition, functionality, importance, and its impact on skin aging.Methods: An exhaustive exploration of scholarly literature was performed utilizing electronic databases including PubMed, Google Scholar, and ResearchGate, focusing on studies published between 2011 and 2024. Keywords included “skin microbiome,” “skin microbiota,” and “aging skin.” Studies involving human subjects that focused on the skin microbiome's relationship with skin health were included. Out of 100 initially identified studies, 70 met the inclusion criteria and were reviewed.Results: Studies showed that aging is associated with a reduction in the variety of microorganisms of the skin microbiome, leading to an increased susceptibility to skin conditions. Consequently, this underlines the interest in bacteriotherapy, mainly topical probiotics, to reinforce the skin microbiome in older adults, suggesting improvements in skin health and a reduction in age‐related skin conditions. Further exploration is needed into the microbiome's role in skin health and the development of innovative, microbe‐based skincare products. Biotherapeutic approaches, including the use of phages, endolysins, probiotics, prebiotics, postbiotics, and microbiome transplantation, can restore balance and enhance skin health. This article also addresses regulatory standards in the EU and the USA that ensure the safety and effectiveness of microbial skincare products.Conclusion: This review underscores the need to advance research on the skin microbiome's role in cosmetic enhancements and tailored skincare solutions, highlighting a great interest in leveraging microbial communities for dermatological benefits.

The concept of aging has evolved from being primarily attributed to genetic factors to recognizing the critical role of epigenetic mechanisms. Recent advancements, such as epigenetic clocks, have provided tools to assess biological age and offer insights into aging processes at the molecular level. In aesthetic dermatology, understanding these processes allows for more personalized, effective interventions targeting the root causes of skin aging. This review explores the interplay of epigenetic changes, aging, and the potential of personalized care to enhance longevity and skin rejuvenation. This review is based on an extensive literature search conducted across PubMed and other scientific databases. Studies focused on epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation, histone modifications, and their relationship to skin aging. Particular attention was given to recent advancements in biological clocks, including Horvath's Clock and GrimAge, and their implications for personalized dermatological treatments. Epigenetic clocks, such as Horvath's Clock, have demonstrated utility in assessing biological age through methylation markers, revealing actionable insights into aging processes. Energy‐based devices like fractional lasers and radiofrequency have shown promise in reversing age‐related epigenetic changes, promoting collagen synthesis, and reducing biological skin age. Additionally, lifestyle factors such as diet, sleep, and circadian rhythm alignment significantly influence epigenetic aging and skin health. Integrating epigenetic insights into aesthetic dermatology represents a paradigm shift in skin rejuvenation, allowing for personalized treatments that address visible signs of aging and underlying molecular mechanisms. Using biological clocks provides a framework for tailoring interventions to individual patient needs, optimizing outcomes, and extending the longevity of aesthetic results. Future research should focus on longitudinal studies, accessibility, and ethical considerations to fully harness the potential of epigenetics in promoting skin health and overall well‐being.
