AVALIAÇÃO DA OZONIOTERAPIA COMO ABORDAGEM TERAPÊUTICA INOVADORA NOS TRATAMENTOS ESTÉTICOS NO BRASIL: UMA ANÁLISE DA LITERATURA

Abstract

Ozone is a gas that is formed from solar radiation or electrical discharges that occur in oxygen molecules, separating two oxygen atoms that will be released into the atmosphere, uniting with another oxygen molecule, forming O3. In Brazil, ozone therapy is widely used in aesthetic procedures, which has made the country stand out as one of the main producers of scientific work on this subject. The objective of this work is to carry out an integrative literature review through reading and analysis of scientific articles in the Pubmed, Scopus, Scielo databases and Brazilian legislation, seeking to systematize the information available on the use of ozone therapy in advanced aesthetics and its impacts. In Brazil, with the aim of contributing to a better understanding of the practice and providing support for future research and regulations. Analysis of the studies revealed that ozone therapy demonstrates vasodilatory properties that result in better tissue oxygenation and nutrition, providing benefits in breaking down localized fat and biostimulation. This technique also has anti-inflammatory effects, which help to reduce inflammation, with the ability to modulate the metabolism of fat cells, facilitating the breakdown of localized fat. It also stimulates collagen production, combating sagging skin.
