Use of low-level laser therapy as an adjuvant therapy for phlebostatic lesions.

Low-intensity laser therapy (LILT) is commonly used as an adjuvant therapy for treating injuries. This integrative literature review was carried out in the MEDLINE, LILACS, CUMED, BDENF, SPORTDiscus, Dentistry & Oral Sciences Source, Academic Source and CINAHL databases. Among the inclusion criteria were: range from 2011 to 2021, in English, Portuguese and Spanish and any study, with the exception of preprints and books. The question was answered: "What is the effectiveness described in the literature of using low-intensity laser therapy (LILT) in the treatment of venous lesions?" The wavelength used in studies varied from 635 nm of red ray to 780 nm of infrared ray, generating healing improvement at any length. LBI presented itself as a low-cost and easy-to-apply adjuvant option, alleviating pain complaints and improving healing in patients with vasculogenic lesions.
