How does ozonated oil work?
Ozone eliminates pathogens and by releasing O2, activates the proliferation of fibroblasts and then stimulates the successive healing processes.
As an antiseptic, ozonated oil kills off bad bacteria and stimulates growth factors which speeds up healing. Ozonated oil also stimulates the body to produce collagen which is important for skin’s elasticity. Stimulating collagen production helps to maintain a younger looking appearance.
Its action is via two simple pathways:
1. To kill pathogens
2. Promote healing
Ozone stimulates endogenous hydrogen peroxide production. The skin produces hydrogen peroxide as a defence mechanism against pathogens. Ozonated oil is therefore a stimulator to the body. Ozonated oil helps with inflammation within 4-6 days. In proliferation and remodelling stages of the skin, ozonated oil promotes tissue repair. This is why ozonated oil is effective at treating acne. By minimising pathogen diffusion and enhancing microcirculation, ozonated oil reduces the swelling, destroys the pathogen, and rapidly heals the skin from damage.
