Dr. Vonda Wright: This Might Be the Real Reason Your Face Looks Different After Weight Loss

What if your face is aging faster because your bones and muscles are disappearing?

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Vonda Wright, orthopedic surgeon and longevity expert, and we discuss how mobility, muscle, and bone density are the missing links in skin aging. We unpack why post-menopausal inflammation reshapes your face, how “Ozempic face” is really about tissue quality, and why lifting heavy weights might be the most effective anti-aging tool.

You’ll also learn why facial structure collapses with bone loss, how estrogen protects your skin via immune regulation, and why filler may accelerate aging long term. Dr. Wright also shares the daily habits that prevent osteosarcopenia (bone + muscle loss), how hormonal decline drives arthritis, and why unresolved inflammation ages every layer of your body, from joints to collagen.

This episode is a wake-up call for anyone treating skin from the outside in.
