Abstract:
The authors made an attempt at treating tuberous sclerosis (Bourneville's disease) by means of dermabrasion. The technique and postoperative course are described. The immediate results were very encouraging, but in time returned to an appearance close to the initial one. In conclusion, dermabrasion is not an appropriate treatment for tuberous sclerosis.

Acne Infection
Acne is a multifactorial skin condition primarily affecting adolescents and young adults, with a global prevalence estimated to exceed 75% in this demographic.

The pathogenesis involves increased sebum production, follicular hyperkeratinization, colonization by...
