deathcabforacne 0 Posted January 7, 2010 hello all, i recently had a pimple injected by my derm on monday, he said it was Kenalog, a steroid that would calm it down. i'm wondering if anyone has any experience or knowledge with this and if it has any interaction with accutane, which i'm currently taking (with accutane's effectiveness, side effects, etc.), or anything else they want to share about Kenalog. Thanks in advance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mom2byz 0 Posted January 7, 2010 I have those injections several times. Not since starting Accuatne though. My acne is so painful that I actually love getting those injections. In about 2-3 days, the cyst is gone! In just a few hours they stop hurting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deathcabforacne 0 Posted January 8, 2010 i heard about some complications with indented or pitted scars occurring because of kenalog shots...has this ever happened? and does the area stay clear after the shots? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
