Most of the mare attributable to natural disasters, work accidents and domestic burns, in some cases, they may indicate the presence of child abuse. Management of facial burns presents a challenge to surgeons as burn traumas involving the face result in both physical and psychological injury. Objective: The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of Theresienöl® in cases of facial burns. Method: Over a period of two years, the study contingent was 53 patients. Patients were selected from those attending the Department of Burns, Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery at “St. George” University Hospital, Medical University “Plovdiv”. They were subdivided into groups according to age, gender, etiology and degree of burns as well as duration of treatment. Once per day our patients received treatment with Theresienöl® based on an open approach, with rubbing of the substance with massage movements, thus securing impregnation of the oil in the damages areas. Results: We monitored a very good penetration of the oil in the eschars and consequently – their more rapid separation and better esthetic results.
