Well, it's unanimous, I won't touch it for the next 7 days until I see my dermatologist. Won't even use ice. What do you guys think the derm will do? Cortisone shot? And is there a chance the little b...

Well here's an update: the inflammation has gone down because of ice and ibuprofen. It's extremely hard to not poke at, but I am doing my best. The whitehead that had developed popped while I was icin...

Please help! 3 days ago I tried to pop an acne bump that had a very tiny white head. It wouldn't pop and instead began the inflammation process. I took ibuprofen and iced it immediately. Over the next...

I have one on my right cheekbone that's fairly big but only shows up when it's cold out, like you said. I call her Big Red, she only shows her face when she gets cold. Last week a huge one showed up o...

It has faded some, but at times the redness comes back (such as when it's cold out). I have had three v-beam laster treatments (didn't bruise, possibly would have had better results if it had) which m...

Around 10 months ago I tried to squeeze a zit and it inflamed and turned into a cyst. It was huge! Around the size of a quater, maybe a little bigger (no joke). I dont get acne all that much just a zi...

It really does amaze me that in our modernized society we haven't found a solution to this problem. We explore other planets through space travel and use the force that exists between atoms to destroy...

I'm going to try silicone for my erythema, I'll post back here with my results in a month. We have to find a solution to this. Have tried: turmeric (topically and ingested) - no noticeable improveme...

121 views and zero replies? Can't anybody give me some input on how to open pores and bring whatever is under my skin out?

Alright folks, second ever post on here (first one being very unsuccessful with one reply). I'll keep it short. About 4 months ago now I (FOR SOME IDIOTIC REASON) squeezed a small white spot on my fa...

i did a less pwerful accutane course but after a few mnths i had a sudden attack of big cystic pimples for the 1st time. i was given azithromycin(azithral 500) and to maintain the daily skincare routi...

My face has always been great as far as acne goes. Then, out of nowhere, this huge cyst/nodular acne became inflamed on my cheek. I initially thought it was just any other acne so I tried to squeeze i...
