With an ever-increasing prevalence of cosmetic treatments, there also have been increasing rates of skin and soft tissue infections due to cosmetic procedures and other popular procedures such as acupuncture. We report a case of a 32-year-old woman who presented with a tender lump on the face of 6 weeks' duration that developed acutely after using an at-home microdermabrasion device. She was eventually diagnosed with a skin infection due to Mycobacterium abscessus, which is part of a more specific group known as rapidly growing nontuberculous mycobacteria. Due to multidrug resistance, treatment of the solitary lesion required combination intravenous (IV) antibiotic therapy for more than 2 months. This report considers the significance of these infections within the context of cosmetic procedures that are generally considered to be minimally invasive.
随着美容治疗的普及率不断上升，因美容手术以及针灸等其他热门手术导致的皮肤和软组织感染率也在增加。我们报告一例32岁女性病例，她面部出现一个持续6周的压痛性肿块，该肿块在使用家用微晶磨皮设备后急性出现。她最终被诊断为脓肿分枝杆菌引起的皮肤感染，脓肿分枝杆菌属于一类更特殊的菌群，即快速生长的非结核分枝杆菌。由于多重耐药性，对这个孤立性病变的治疗需要联合静脉注射抗生素治疗两个多月。本报告在通常被认为是微创的美容手术背景下考虑了这些感染的重要性。
