Please Make Me Feel Better...am I Going To Have A "dent" In My Face From Cortisone Shot? Thanks. I'm just really worried. Having a dent is worse than the pimple.

Popped Pimple Still Swollen... I squeezed a pimple on my cheek two days ago which I know is bad because it's always worse when they're in the cheek area. It was red and felt hard but I only saw an obvious open looking pore. When ... | In forum General acne discussion | 14 years ago |

Tried to pop a cystic pimple and failed.. Just a question, but if you have the cyst for a couple weeks and get a cortisone injection, is it more likely to have an indent afterwards as opposed to getting a "fresh" one injected? The one I have... | In forum General acne discussion | 15 years ago |
