Prevenção e tratamento das complicações vasculares decorrentes dos procedimentos de harmonização facial com ácido hialurônico: uma revisão integrativa de literatura

Abstract

Non-invasive aesthetic procedures, such as the use of hyaluronic acid for facial harmonization, have become popular worldwide. Although effective for correcting imperfections and rejuvenating the face, these procedures can lead to vascular complications, such as vascular obstruction and necrosis, which require immediate intervention. Complications arising from these treatments can seriously affect the health and aesthetics of patients, and it is crucial to understand the best ways to prevent and treat these conditions. The aim of this study was to review the existing literature on the prevention and treatment of vascular complications resulting from facial harmonization procedures with hyaluronic acid. The research was conducted through an integrative literature review, using databases such as PubMed, Scopus and Google Scholar. Inclusion criteria included clinical studies, systematic reviews and scientific articles published in the last ten years, addressing vascular complications associated with the use of hyaluronic acid in aesthetic procedures, their causes, treatments and results. The findings suggest that, despite advances in facial harmonization procedures with hyaluronic acid, vascular complications continue to be a significant risk. Adequate prevention, with the use of appropriate injection techniques and careful selection of patients, is essential to minimize these risks.
