How to Use Ozone Therapy to Treat Acne
Acne and other skin disorders affect millions of people each year. Some have used ozone therapy as an alternative treatment. Purportedly, by injecting ozone into the skin, ozone therapy boosts oxygen levels while it detoxifies impurities and deeply cleanses the system. It can be administered to treat acne by a professional ozone therapist or through supervised home sessions. Follow these steps to learn more.
Things You'll Need:
Ozone body suit
Internet access
Ozone bags
Access to an ozone therapy practitioner
Ozone generator
Use Ozone Therapy to Treat Acne With Saunas
1
Find a practitioner who uses a hyperbaric chamber or an ozone sauna to treat skin disorders. Make an appointment.
2
At the practitioner's office, enter either device and have the professional add the concentrated oxygen into the chamber or sauna.
3
Relax for approximately 30 minutes, sweating out impurities and allowing the oxygen to seep into your skin. Repeat this process several times a week for maximum benefits.

Use Ozone Therapy to Treat Acne With Body Suits
1
Visit a registered ozone therapist, or buy all the necessary supplies for home use.
2
Take a warm shower to open pores.
3
Put on an ozone body suit, which will pump ozone onto you.
4
Leave the suit on for 10 to 15 minutes.
5
Repeat this process 2 to 3 times a week, but never more than once per day.
Use Ozone Therapy to Treat Acne With Bagging
1
Place the output tube of an ozone generator into an ozone bag.
2
Wrap the bag around the infected area, but never put the bag around your face or head.
3
Allow the treatment to stay applied for 10 to 30 minutes.
Tips & Warnings
Sessions with a therapist are moderately priced; but many sessions will be required before you're fully healed. Costs can add up. Consider buying ozone equipment for home use if you've been pleased with the results of your practitioner visits.
Don't use an ozone bag for acne on your face. Use the advice in the first section for that.
Visit a doctor or ER immediately if you have a serious skin infection.
If you plan to treat your acne at home, it's imperative that you follow all warnings and instructions. For instance, many ozone devices cannot be used on the face, making them safe for treating body acne only.
Before you start any alternative medical technique, be aware that many have not been scientifically evaluated. Often, only limited information is available about their safety and effectiveness. Each state and each discipline has its own rules about how alternative medicine practitioners can be professionally licensed. If you decide to visit one, choose one licensed by a recognized national organization. Consult your primary health care provider about your decision first. Keep your doctor informed about the alternative medical technique you undertake.
