Purpose:To identify and to analyze researches about facial esthetic logopedics in Brazil. Research strategy: Literature review was performed in LILACS, MEDLINE and SciELO database. Selection criteria: Full studies between 2001 and 2015 were included. Results: Six studies published between 2002 and 2012 were found in one scientific periodic, which 4 were published in the last 5 years. Most studies had as sample women (n=4; 66.67%) in middle age (n=4; 66.67%), and sessions once a week (n=3; 50%) using isometric exercises (n=3; 50%). Conclusion: Publication about esthetic logopedics is increasing, but the available studies have low methodologic quality, restrict number of participants, heterogeneity, and incomplete procedures description. Therefore, the lack of high level evidence data does not allow the effectiveness analysis of the procedures and applicability of clinical findings. A maioria realizou intervenções em mulheres (n=4; 66,67%) na meia-idade (n=4; 66,67%), uma vez por semana (n=3; 50%), com exercícios isométricos (n=3; 50%). Conclusão: Houve um aumento no número de publicações sobre o tema, porém, os estudos disponíveis têm baixa qualidade metodológica, número restrito de sujeitos analisados, heterogeneidade e descrição incompleta dos procedimentos. Assim, a falta de dados com alto nível de evidência científica não permite a análise da eficácia dos procedimentos e a aplicabilidade clínica dos achados.Descritores: Terapia por exercício; Estética; Fenômenos fisiológicos; Músculo esquelético; Fisiologia Study undertaken at
