98% of the time, the only acne I have are the cystic bumps that scar and are incredibly painful.
Is there anything I can do that is preventative?

Isotretinoin supposedly cures most cystic acne. If not, consult a doctor and they will find you a good prescription.
if you eat alot of wheat. stop for about a week and your skin will look much better.trust me.stop eating food with corn syrup in it too.and milk.
Im sorry you have this but I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL, i have the same situation and honestly ican tell you the only things that ive used that effeciently stopped cystic acne for me was monodox. its a prescription pill also known as doxycycline monohydrate. this is the only thing that stopps cystic acne (personally for me). cystic acne is caused by an infection or bacteria and thats why these pills have been so good for me. the thing i HATE about cystic acne is that they cause scarring. ive got a few good scars on my cheeks but its not bad bad. Just dont try to pop them, repeat dont try to pop them because cystic acne is really deep down your pores(thats why they scar) I also used diffren adapalene gel and a benzoyl peroxide 10% for day and night wash. The best thing to do is act quick because cystic acne is the worst type of acne and dont let it mark up your preety face
I know where u comin from, when i was in h.s. i had the same terrible acne eventually i gave up on all the topical acne control stuff and went to a dermatologist. my derm. recomended somethin called Accutane. At first i was skeptical but i gave it a try they put u on a prescription and u gotta take it every day, once in the morn and night for about up to 6 months, the only thing is that when u first start using it, it reallly dries you out and there are birth defects if u take it while pregnant, but in the end you wont regret it. so talk about it with ur derm, heres a link too http://www.drugs.com/accutane.html good luck
