Core Tip Mycobacterium abscessus (M. abscessus) is a rapidly growing nontuberculous mycobacterium that can lead to infections of the lung, lymph node, skin, and soft tissue. The incidence of infection with M. abscessus has increased in recent years. This increase is partly associated with invasive cosmetic procedures. We report here for the first time a case of infection with M. abscessus after argireline injection. The purpose of this case summary is to increase clinicians' awareness of M. abscessus infection and reduce mycobacterial infection caused by cosmetic procedures.
