Resumo
A alopecia provocada por eflúvio telógeno é uma desordem capilar caracterizada por
uma queda difusa, apresentando rarefações no cabelo, comprometendo a qualidade
de vida e autoestima do paciente. Estudos recentes constataram que a relação entre
a COVID-19 e a queda excessiva de cabelo poderia ser diagnosticada como um
eflúvio telógeno e estar entre as principais sequelas da doença. Portanto, o presente
estudo de revisão bibliográfica visa examinar os efeitos terapêuticos da
fotobiomodulação em eflúvio telógeno pós COVID, bem como os mecanismos
desencadeantes da queda capilar. Para o desenvolvimento dessa pesquisa foram
selecionados artigos que contemplam o tema de pesquisa, identificados através do
título e posteriormente resumos, publicados nos últimos 10 anos, escritos em língua
inglesa, espanhola e portuguesa, por meio das bases de dados: PubMed, BVS e
Scielo. O presente estudo nos indica que uma das hipóteses atribuídas a causa do
eflúvio telógeno pós COVID esteja relacionado a tempestade de citocinas liberadas
durante a infecção pelo vírus SARS-CoV-2, sinalizando que a fotobiomodulação pode
ser uma possível alternativa terapêutica, pois atua na modulação da resposta
inflamatória, oxigenação tecidual, modulando respostas biológicas e podendo
estimular o crescimento capilar. No entanto há muitas limitações em termos de
evidências científicas sólidas, pois a maioria das pesquisas clínicas ainda estão em
andamento.
The alopecia caused by telogen effluvium is a hair disorder characterized by diffusehair shedding, resulting in hair thinning and impacting the patient's quality of life and self-esteem. Recent studies have found that the relationship between COVID-19 and excessive hair loss could be diagnosed as telogen effluvium and considered one of the main sequelae of the disease. Therefore, this literature review aims to examine the therapeutic effects of photobiomodulation in post-COVID telogen effluvium, as well as the triggering mechanisms of hair loss. For the development of this research, articles addressing the research topic were selected based on their titles and later abstracts. These articles were published within the last 10 years and written in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. The databases PubMed, BVS, and Scielo were used for the search. The present study suggests that one of the hypotheses attributed to the cause of postCOVID telogen effluvium is related to the cytokine storm released during the SARSCoV-2 virus infection. This indicates that photobiomodulation may be a possible therapeutic alternative as it modulates the inflammatory response, tissue oxygenation, and biological responses, potentially stimulating hair growth. However, there are many limitations in terms of solid scientific evidence, as most clinical research is still ongoing
