Please help with my cystic acne... how do I get rid of it?!?!


Question: Please help with my cystic acne... how do I get rid of it.?!.?
If you're going to reccomend Accutane not only will I give you a "thumbs down" but I will not listen to what you say. I have seen too many things about Accutane and hear them as well to know I don't want to go on it.

For anyone else, please give me some ideas for treating my cystic acne! Any topical remedies that might work.? What about prescription drugs that aren't as harsh as Accutane.? Please help I am so frustrated with stupid cystic acne!Health Question & Answer

I know how frustrated you are. I dealt with horrible acne for years. I was hesitant about Accutane too, having heard all the horror stories about depression, suicide, kidney and liver damage, birth defects. My first derm. dr. refused to put me on it too.

However, the initial hype died down, you notice, and you hear very little about it. It is NOT recommended for teenagers due to the common stresses and hormonal issues of teenagerhood being so much to deal with. The risks are real, but really very rare if you read up on it.

I was 22 when I went on it. A friend of mine was 18 when she went on it. Another friend was 30. It worked well for all 3 of us. It wasn't fun (the dry skin and hair and cracked lips can make you CRAZY!) but if your doctor rakes you over the coals and educates you and tests your blood and tests for pregnancy EVERY month, you should have no fear.

Your life will be better because of it. I am glad I did it.Health Question & Answer

From what I've read the only ways to rid yourself of cystic acne is to go to a doctor and have them drain it OR wait until it goes away or can be popped.Health Question & Answer
