PROCEDIMENTOS ESTÉTICOS E OS RISCOS DE NECROSE

Abstract

Introduction. The performance of minimally invasive aesthetic procedures, such as fillers and collagen stimulators, has become increasingly popular in the pursuit of facial harmonization and rejuvenation. Despite technical advancements, complications such as tissue necrosis pose serious risks to patients’ physical and emotional integrity. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the main risks of necrosis in aesthetic procedures, their causes, clinical manifestations, emotional impacts, and prevention and intervention strategies. Results and discussion: The literature review revealed that factors such as lack of anatomical knowledge, inadequate techniques, and absence of safety protocols increase the incidence of necrosis. Results showed that early identification of clinical signs, the use of safe application techniques, and continuous professional training are essential to reduce risks. Additionally, it was found that necrosis impacts not only the patient’s physical condition but also causes significant emotional consequences, affecting self-esteem and quality of life. Conclusion:The prevention of necrosis in aesthetic procedures requires technical training, ethical responsibility, and a humanized approach, aiming to promote patient safety and overall well-being.
