Objective: to identify the nutrients ingested by patients undergoing facial aesthetic treatment. Methods: it was a cross-sectional, descriptive, quantitative research. The study was carried out in an aesthetic clinic of an aesthetic medicine institute in the city of Sobral, Ceará, Brazil. The research was carried out in October and November 2017. Twenty adults who had undergone an aesthetic chemical peeling procedure 30 days ago participated. A validated food frequency questionnaire was applied and food consumption and frequency of intake were observed. In a specific form, the types of supplements used and unusual foods consumed were verified. The results were presented in graphs and tables and descriptive statistics were applied, containing total values, means and percentages. Results: there was a female predominance (85%); 55% gained weight; 20% used nutritional supplements; 60% consumed beef or pork; 45% never or rarely ingested animal fat; and all reported ingesting dairy products, hydrating fruits with a good amount of vitamin C and leafy vegetables. Conclusion: the investigation showed that there was a certain dietary balance in vitamins, minerals and proteins present in the patients' diet, being suggestive for a recovery of the skin after an aesthetic procedure. |
