Ozone is an oxygen molecule consisting of three atoms instead of two. Many of you remember this from your high school chemistry classes. And many of you probably know that ozone is quite a useful substance for the planet as a whole and for the human body. It affects all organs and systems, promotes wound healing, and eliminates bacterial and fungal infections.
Based on the beneficial effects of ozone, a new method in medicine has emerged - ozone therapy. Few people know, but despite the fact that it has become known only now, doctors have been using ozone for quite a long time - since the First World War. Even then, the beneficial effect of this substance on cells and tissues was noted.
Ozone is used in the treatment of various diseases, to eliminate all sorts of cosmetic problems. Some clinics use ozone therapy for weight loss, and, strangely enough, it has an effect.
How exactly does it work?
A mixture of ozone and oxygen is delivered to the cells through subcutaneous injections. In deep tissues, ozone speeds up metabolism and stimulates cellular function. As a result, fat is burned faster, and the skin and muscle tissue become toned and healthy-looking.
Cosmetologists promise an amazing effect: in addition to weight loss, after a few sessions you regain your former youthfulness and attractiveness.
The procedures are no different from those performed with mesotherapy, just instead of hyaluronic acid, ozone is injected into the tissues. Ozone therapy can be associated with external application, but the greatest effect it gives when injected under the skin.
Naturally, one or two injections are not enough to help you lose weight. During one session, several dozens of injections can be given, and you will get a good result only after 10-20 procedures. You can have them every other day, which means that the whole course will take a little more or a little less than a month.
Does ozone therapy give a hundred percent effect?
Unfortunately, no modern method (except for surgery) is not able to remove 20-30 kilograms of excess weight in just a month. Ozone therapy for weight loss is used as an auxiliary method and gives visible results only if you do not have big weight problems and just want to correct your figure.
If we are talking about significant fat deposits, about a weight of 100-120 kilograms, ozone treatment is absolutely not the method to use and count on. The best way to get rid of the extra tens of kilograms will be a diet combined with physical exercise.
Ideally, before using different weight loss methods, you should see a doctor who will check your hormones and possibly help remove the cause of obesity - a disease or hormone problem.
Ozone therapy does not give such a lasting effect as liposuction. In the course of the operation, fatty tissue is eliminated completely and subsequently in the same place does not appear at all. With ozone therapy, fat is burned naturally, but at an accelerated rate. This means that if you do not change your approach to diet or physical activity, the fat layer will reappear. This, however, is the advantage of the method: with natural weight loss, you do not traumatize the body and do not sacrifice your health to beauty.
Ozone treatment is one of the most harmless techniques, which, however, should be combined with other methods. Especially when it comes to weight loss.
