Resumo: | Background and Objectives: This study aimed to identify the presence of microorganisms in the aesthetic environment and assess professionals’ knowledge about relevant infection prevention measures, considering the importance of the issue and the lack of study in the area. Methods: A total of 100 clinics that perform minimally invasive aesthetic procedures in Porto Alegre (RS), Brazil, were visited. Procedures such as botulin-toxin, dermal fillers, collagen biostimulators, thread lift, chemical peels and laser hair removal were considered. A questionnaire about infection prevention measures were answered by 50 professionals. Also, 100 samples were collected from the environment for bacterial identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Results: There was an infection prevention protocol in 40% of clinics, in which 95% of respondents had complete college education. Periodic professional training regarding infection control measures were performed in 72% of clinics. An autoclave was used for sterilization of materials and instruments in 66% of clinics. From the samples collected, 85% showed bacterial growth by microbiological methods. Coagulase-negative Staphylococci was the most prevalent genera found, and 16% of them were resistant to both cefoxitin, erythromycin, and clindamycin. Four isolates were positive for mecA by PCR. Conclusion: The presence of well-trained professionals is critical in aesthetic clinics so that biosafety and infection prevention measures are taken. |

Métodos: Se visitaron 100 clínicas que realizan procedimientos estéticos mínimamente invasivos en Porto Alegre (RS), Brasil. Se consideraron procedimientos invasivos, como la aplicación de toxina botulínica, rellenos faciales, microagujas, bioestimuladores de colágeno, hilos de soporte, peelings químicos y depilación láser. Un cuestionario sobre medidas de prevención de infecciones fue respondido por 50 profesionales. Además, se recolectaron 100 muestras del medio ambiente para la identificación bacteriana y las pruebas de susceptibilidad a los antimicrobianos. Resultados: Existía un protocolo de prevención de infecciones en el 40% de las clínicas, en el que el 95% de los profesionales encuestados tenía educación universitaria completa. En el 72% de las clínicas se realizó capacitación profesional periódica sobre medidas de control de infecciones. Se utilizó un autoclave para la esterilización de materiales e instrumentos en el 66% de las clínicas. De las muestras recolectadas, el 85% mostró crecimiento bacteriano por métodos de cultivo microbiologicos. El Staphylococci coagulasa negativo fue el género más prevalente encontrado, y el 16% de ellos eran resistentes tanto a cefoxitina, eritromicina y clindamicina. Cuatro aislamientos fueron positivos para mecA por PCR. Conclusión: La presencia de profesionales debidamente capacitados es fundamental en las clínicas de estética, para la toma medidas de bioseguridad y prevención de infecciones.Justificativa e Objetivos: Este estudo teve como objetivo identificar a presença de microrganismos no ambiente estético e avaliar o conhecimento dos profissionais sobre medidas relevantes de prevenção de infecções, considerando a importância do tema e a falta de estudos nesta área. Métodos: Foram visitadas 100 clínicas que realizam procedimentos estéticos minimamente invasivos em Porto Alegre (RS), Brasil. Foram considerados procedimentos injetáveis como aplicação de toxina botulínica, preenchedores faciais, microagulhamento, bioestimuladores de colágeno, fios de sustentação, peelings químicos e depilação a laser. Um questionário sobre medidas de prevenção de infecção foi respondido por 50 profissionais. Além disso, 100 amostras foram coletadas do ambiente para identificação bacteriana e teste de sensibilidade aos antimicrobianos. Resultados: Existia protocolo de prevenção de infecção em 40% dos ambulatórios, no qual 95% dos profissionais entrevistados possuíam ensino superior completo. Treinamento profissional periódico sobre medidas de controle de infecção foi realizado em 72% dos ambulatórios. Autoclave foi utilizada para esterilização de materiais e instrumentais em 66% das clínicas. Das amostras coletadas, 85% apresentaram crescimento bacteriano nas culturas microbiológicas. Staphylococci coagulase-negativo foi o gênero mais prevalente encontrado; e 16% deles eram resistentes à cefoxitina, eritromicina e clindamicina. Quatro isolados foram positivos para mecA por PCR.
