The aim of this case report was to present the management of the aesthetic consequences of the treatment for granuloma removal in the zygomatic region, with concentrated growth factors (CGF) activated by medical ozone. A 54-year-old woman presented with bilateral lesion in the zygomatic region, caused by treatment with hyaluronidase and laser for removal of a granuloma, developed after infiltration with hyaluronate. The lesion was treated by local application of platelet-rich plasma obtained with CGF centrifuge, and containing CD34+ cells, mixed and activated by ozone in a 1:1 proportion, at a concentration of 40 mg/ml for 30 sec, in a syringe. Five consecutive bilateral infiltrations were made at 3-week intervals. Lesion volume was measured, and patient's quality of life was assessed with PGWBI (Psychological General Well Being Index) questionnaire. After the third infiltration of CGF-ozone, a consistent reduction of the lesion was observed, until disappearance at the end of the treatment. The result was maintained after 4-year follow-up. Considerable improvement of patient's well-being was reported. This case report showed that CGF-ozone combined therapy may promote dermal regeneration, achieving excellent facial esthetics outcomes. This result needs to be confirmed by further studies with a larger sample size.
