If you suffer from cystic acne
you’re
facing a few upsides and a few downsides. Cystic acne is the least common type
of acne, so if you are getting
inflammed breakouts, your biggest
downside is that you are that 1 in 1,000 statistic that has to deal with more
noticeable cysts and quite a bit more pain. Although these types of breakouts
are more uncommon than others, they are actually the easiest/quickest type of
acne to clear - so your biggest upside is that you will be clear and it will
happen sooner for you than it happens for most others.
If cystic acne is the easiest
type of acne
While
cystic acne is easier to clear, it is also the most sensitive clearing process.
This is why you need professional help. If you suffer from cystic acne and you
do not treat your skin correctly during the clearing process, you could end up
with pitted or indented scars. These pitted scars are extremely hard & expensive
to treat after you have achieved clear skin.
You
will cause yourself pitted or indented scars if you pick at your blemishes or
cause more stress to your already inflamed skin. While not picking your skin is
up to you, we can help you use the most beneficial products to clear your skin
without putting stress on your inflammation. At Skintherapy Skincare and Acne
Clinic of Salt Lake City, we can ensure that you use the best anti-inflammatory
products in the safest and most effective way. We use the most effective ingredients
for cystic acne and put you on a guided regimen of mandelic acid, salicylic
acid and benzoyl peroxide. We also use sulfur in some cases to help bring down
inflammation and redness.
Is there anything that I can
do
We highly suggest
icing for cystic acne, this will help with inflammation tremendously. We also
suggest minimizing your dairy and cheese intake if you are trying to clear any
type of acne at all, but especially if your acne is inflamed. Overall, there
are many lifestyle changes that can help with cystic acne and we will go over
them with you on your first visit to the clinic!
If
you are a woman, the downside to cystic acne is that you will see the worst of
it on a monthly basis - according to your menstrual cycle. If you are a man,
the biggest downside is that you are generally more likely to suffer from
cystic acne rather than non-cystic. Again though, the biggest upside in all of
this, for anybody, is that cystic acne is ultimately easier to clear than any
other type of acne.
