Análise da qualidade da água na eficácia do vapor de ozônio na estética facial

Abstract

Ozone therapy is a therapeutic methodology with ozone gas, its bactericidal, fungicidal and germicidal benefits are welcome in some hair, facial and body aesthetic protocols, mainly in contaminated dysfunctions. The objective of the study was to analyze if the quality of the water used in the ozone vapor interfered in its effects of microbiological control. For this, four ozone vapor equipment of the brand DGM were used, each one received a type of water after its asepsis (tap water, mineral and boiled) and the fourth received tap water without previous asepsis. These equipment were connected and the steam jet directed to Petri plate containing Blood Agar and Standard Agar for Counting with a distance of 40 centimeters for 15 minutes. After the procedure, the plates were immediately incubated in an oven at 37 ° C to observe bacteriological growth for 48 hours. It can be concluded that, regardless of the quality of the water used, there was no microbiological growth, which demonstrates that the function of the equipment is effective, but new research is suggested so that it can better target the class of aesthetics professionals.
