How injectable/oral GLP-1 medications work: Mimic the GLP-1 hormone with engineered modifications for extended duration Bind to GLP-1 receptors to enhance insulin release and reduce glucagon Slow gastric emptying by 20-50%, promoting satiety Supported by large randomized controlled trialsthe STEP trials showed 14.9% mean weight loss at 68 weeks versus 2.4% for placebo The short answer on why patches cant deliver these drugs: GLP-1 molecules are relatively large peptide chains (molecular weight 3-5 kDa) that cannot effectively penetrate the skin barrier through passive transdermal diffusion
They act as specific signaling molecules that mimic the human body's endogenous hormones to regulate biological processes
Its especially effective in the lower face, jawline, and under the chin, where collagen loss can lead to sagging or reduced definition
