Face ozone therapy is a cosmetic procedure aimed at restoring, improving and cleansing the skin.

When carrying out ozone therapy for the face, special attention is paid to improving oxygenation, microcirculation and energy supply of cells, proper trophism and skin protection.

Ozone is a unique agent for restoring and preserving the natural beauty and health of the skin.

Aging at the epidermal level is induced by inhibiting proliferative cell division, depleting the epidermis, increasing the keratin layer, decreasing elasticity and increasing permanent deformation of the epidermis, and the formation of deep wrinkles.

Application of facial ozone therapy

The skin of the face can look young only in the case of proper trophism and division of epidermal cells. The natural mechanism of cellular trophism is carried out with the help of tissue fluid, lymph and blood plasma. Their functional efficiency and the quality of the epidermal trophism are significantly reduced under the influence of negative environmental factors, due to which aging occurs at the dermis level, caused by a change in the structure of collagen and elastic fibers.

The consequence of aging and unfavorable environmental factors is energy deficiency of cells, which leads to depletion and fragmentation of elastin fibers, inhibition of the regeneration of epidermal cells, and the result of these processes is wrinkles.

However, the aging of the skin can be stopped, and its structure can be restored by neutralizing the above-mentioned processes, thereby eliminating the causes, not the effects. This is precisely the purpose of facial ozone therapy.

For the treatment of problem skin and wrinkles, the following methods of facial ozone therapy are recommended:

Subcutaneous ozone injections and the use of ozonated olive oil for facial massage;
Intravenous ozone infusion and rectal ozone insufflation.

The subcutaneous injection of ozone activates metabolic processes in the high-energy compounds of cells, normalizes transport activity, permeability, deformability, viscosity and electrical properties of membranes. At the same time, the procedure leads to an increase in the intensity of energy processes. On the one hand, due to the wider use of oxygen by cells due to the activation of aerobic glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and B-oxidation of fatty acids. On the other hand, due to the optimization of blood functions with oxygen (in the presence of ozone, erythrocytes are able to transfer 10 times more oxygen). In addition, the procedure helps to activate the antioxidant defense system and neutralize the damaging effects of free radicals.

Another method of administering ozone is intravenous drip. This treatment is aimed at cleansing the body, eliminating toxins, including toxins caused by stressful situations, comprehensive treatment of skin aging and global intestinal lavage. Before and after face ozone therapy, it is recommended to carry out rectal ozone administration, thereby creating favorable conditions for the regeneration of healthy intestinal flora and a beneficial effect on the entire body.

With ozone therapy of the face, subcutaneous injections are made at the sites of localization of wrinkles

For the correction of existing signs of skin aging after 35 years, ozone therapy for the face in the form of subcutaneous injections in the places of localization of wrinkles and other places with manifestations of skin aging (chin, cheeks and neck) is of great benefit, according to reviews. Before and after ozone therapy of the face in the form of injections, it is recommended to carry out manual facial massage to evenly distribute the ozone-oxygen gas mixture and better prepare the skin.

The positive effect is observed after 3-4 procedures: the skin turgor increases, fine wrinkles are smoothed, the pastiness of the face decreases and the skin color improves. According to reviews, ozone therapy for the face reduces dry skin, and a lifting effect is observed in the chin area.

Ozone therapy for the face is also used in the form of local ozone injections into inflammatory areas. In some cases, it is recommended to first perform key sanitization by the method of electrocoagulation, opening and elimination of purulent contents, and then apply ozone therapy to the face. The depth and number of injections depends on the size of the inflammatory zone. Up to 5 ml of ozone-oxygen mixture is introduced into each point. On average, the course of treatment consists of 5-6 procedures every 5 days. According to reviews, ozone therapy for the face in the form of injections into inflammatory zones leads to clinical improvement of the skin after the first procedure.

Benefits of facial ozone therapy

Facial ozone therapy stimulates the synthesis of proteins, including its own collagen and elastin, and increases the regenerative potential of the proliferative layer of the skin. The procedure increases the volume of tissue fluid in the deep layers of the skin and restores the skin's natural ability to retain moisture, which leads to rejuvenation of the facial skin, smoothing and disappearance of deep wrinkles.

A significant difference between facial ozone therapy and other cosmetics and procedures is its double effect - outside and inside the body, which manifests itself in the normalization of trophism, oxygenation, moisturizing, protection and restoration of the skin. The procedure helps to achieve deep cleansing and toning of the facial skin for a long period of time.

Thus, facial ozone therapy is a revolutionary remedy for skin rejuvenation, which improves its structure. Especially noticeable and fast results of facial ozone therapy are observed in patients diagnosed with skin stress.

After the widespread introduction of medium and deep chemical peelings, laser and mechanical skin resurfacing and injection contouring into cosmetology practice, visitors to these procedures repeatedly encounter their negative consequences - hypertrophic scars. Ozone gas injections around the scars lead to the disappearance of skin sensitivity, tighten and soften the scars and promote their further resorption. According to reviews, the result of such ozone therapy for the face is the disappearance of the scar surface and the restoration of tissue elasticity.

Ozone therapy for the face, according to reviews, differs from similar procedures in good tolerance by patients, ease of use, almost complete absence of side effects, high efficiency and availability.

Contraindications to facial ozone therapy

Contraindications to facial ozone therapy may include diseases such as epilepsy, hemorrhagic stroke, decreased blood clotting, thrombocytopenia and arrhythmia.
