Can ozonated oil make surgical scars heal better?
NCT ID NCT07809308
First seen Sep 09, 2026 · Last updated Sep 10, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
Researchers are testing whether an ozonated oil helps surgical wounds heal faster and scars look better after breast surgery. Fifty participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the ozonated oil or a non-ozonated oil, both combined with chlorhexidine, and neither the participants nor the doctors will know which one is used. The study measures scar appearance and skin properties over two months using standard scar scales and skin probes.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- ozonated oil applied to surgical wounds
- What this could lead to
- If it works, ozonated oil could become a simple, low-cost way to help surgical wounds heal faster and leave less noticeable scars after breast surgery.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early study of 50 people, so any benefit may be modest or may not hold up in larger trials. Ozonated oil can irritate sensitive skin, and the results may not apply to other types of surgery.

Inclusion Criteria: * Subjects aged between 25 and 75 years at the time of signing the informed consent form. * Subjects undergoing unilateral breast surgery. * Subjects in good physical and psychological health. * Subjects who have voluntarily provided written informed consent, either personally or, where applicable, through a family member, custodian, or legal representative. * Subjects willing to comply with the study procedures, including the instructions for use of the assigned product and attendance at the scheduled follow-up visits. Exclusion Criteria: * Pregnant or breastfeeding women. * Subjects with a history of chronic or currently active skin disease that, in the investigator's opinion, may adversely affect dermal regeneration. * Subjects with diseases or disorders that, in the investigator's opinion, could interfere with the assessment of safety or effectiveness. * Subjects with any acute infectious disease. * Subjects with any systemic disease that could worsen the prognosis in the event of an adverse event, including poorly controlled diabetes with retinopathy or peripheral vascular disease, severe hypertension, or other serious disease. * Subjects who are members of the study team, including investigators, collaborators, nursing staff, site employees, or any other person directly involved in the conduct of the protocol. * Subjects with a skin phototype greater than V
