Background: Exfoliating treatments are widely used in cosmetology and dermatology forthe treatment of skin lesions and, above all, toreduce the number of skin eruptions that occur with acne vulgaris. An effective treatment that can be offered to people suffering from this disease is diamond microdermabrasion. The addition of acid peeling to this treatment may lead to even better results than in the case of monotherapy. Aim of the study: To assess the effectiveness of a combination of microdermabrasion and acid peeling on a 21-year-old woman suffering from acne vulgaris. Case report: The patient suffered from acne vulgaris, too high a level of sebum on the entire surface of the face, and, over the course of the disease, developed open and closed blackheads and inflammatory pustules. The sebum level was measured with a DermaUnitSCC3 device and the number of skin eruptions was determined using the global acne severity scale (GAGS). Conclusion: The series of cosmetological treatments led to a reduction in the sebum on the surface of the epidermis and the number of skin eruptions.

Background: Acne scars are a common problem for those suffering from acne vulgaris. They may result in low self-esteem, especially if located in visible places such as the face. They may even impede normal societal functioning and withdrawal from the environment. Aim of the study: To investigate the effects of 20% glycol acid and fractional mesotherapy on the reduction of acne scars. Material and methods: We used interviews, case analysis and assessment of the effects of glycolic acid treatment and fractional mesotherapy on a 33-year-old female patient who experienced severe phlegmonosa acne. Case report: This 33-year-old female patient was struggling with acne at age 29. Purulent cysts were located on the cheeks and jaws on both sides of her face, leaving deep scars that disturbed everyday functioning. She was alternately given four 20% glycolic acid treatments and four fractional mesotherapy treatments. Conclusions: The combination of fractional mesotherapy treatments and exfoliation with 20% glycolic acid resulted in significant improvement. Reduced inflammation contributed to decreased acne scars as well as improvement in life quality.

Beta-hemolytic Streptococcus group G, a rare human pathogen, has long been implicated in human disease as causing pharyngitis, puerperal sepsis, empyema, and even septicemia. We are reporting a rare, life-threatening, acute illness, primary peritonitis, due to this organism, whose etiological source probably was a family dog. Case Report R.K., a 2-year-old girl, was admitted with the complaints of anorexia, vomiting of three days' duration, and severe abdominal distension of one day's duration. The symptoms started following a burn injury over the face and lips three days prior to admission. Past history was noncontributory. Physical examination revealed an ill child of average size, fully conscious.
