I’m an adult female that has suffered enough with this condition. all
the doctors tell me is that they can lance active cyst (which i no longer get) but for the scarring and occasional flare up there really
is nothing left to do?!

I have been to the dermatologist and tried antibiotics and the next step is Acutane, which is not something I want to do. Nothing has helped. Please any info welcomed.

Only if it’s really worked, if you’ve seen true results. Anything that can help?

I really don’t have a lot of money to go see a dermatologist and I just wanna know if there is anything out there for me. I’ve used almost everything including ProActiv but all of it just seems to irritate my skin more. I just really want my face to be clear, I hate feeling so insecure all the time.

My Cysts always occur on my face in the same spots. It gets worse when is that lovely Bloody PERIOD! Someone also mentioned Beta-Carotene. Does that work?

Been having acne for like 4ish years now…seems to be worse then all my friends and I get cysts on my face (Hard deep under skin balls of puss)….any ideas on how to make it better?

I don’t have health insurance! (I know…I can’t afford it)

thanks!

i dont really feel like seeing a doctor because I dont have health insurance. I have cystic acne (or atleast im 90% positive thats what it is) and I really dont have a problem with it, assuming itll eventually just go away. let me know!

They seem to have similar definitions so are they the same thing? Also, any info on treating/preventing them would be helpful.

I am a 23 year old female, I eat healthy food, drink lots of water, and right now I’m using some Dermalogica products. In the past I’ve tried tetracycline, minocin(sp?), Proactive, retin A, etc.

I ordered Murad but I’ve recently read some bad reviews about it, so now I’m a bit hesitant to try it.
