Abstract
This study addresses the use of vegetable oils in wound treatment. These oils contain bioactive compounds that confer analgesic, antiseptic, soothing, healing, and emollient properties. Notably, candeia oil is recognized for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, while grape seed oil is rich in proanthocyanidins with potent antioxidant activity. Lavender oil, in addition to stimulating cell proliferation and neovascularization, possesses antioxidant and antibacterial properties. Pumpkin seed oil, on the other hand, is rich in fatty acids and lipids, which help combat oxidative stress in wounds. Coconut oil, with its antibacterial and antifungal properties, and copaiba oil, with anti-inflammatory and healing actions, are also highlighted. Cucumber seed oil, besides its antioxidant properties, exhibits antimicrobial activity due to the presence of oleic acid. Lastly, tea tree oil, known for its antimicrobial action, also promotes wound healing. These oils represent a promising and natural alternative in wound treatment, although further studies are needed to determine their dosages and ensure their clinical safety.
