So I just had a cyst and it left a scar (it either left a scar or the scar was previously there). The cyst went away but now there is pitting. Is there anything that can be done at this stage to help it heal better?

The damage is probably already done. I'd look into subcision and suction if it's somewhat deep.

I figured. As soon as the cyst shows, is there any way to prevent the scarring? Is it best to get the cyst to a head as soon as possible?

Yeah, try not to let it linger I guess. My inflamed cysts that stayed on my cheeks for months were the ones that left craters.
