A more severe form of acne is called cystic pimples. It forms like the basic type of acne but it will develop into a cyst that is from the build up of a puss like substance in the pores and infection and can be rather painful. Cystic pimples are not a true cyst but what is called a nodule and will form on or below the surface of the skin..

The nodules need to be treated as soon as possible to increase the chance of getting rid of them with the least amount of scarring. If they are in the beginning stages a topical medicated cream and antibiotics can be tried otherwise more aggressive treatment may be required.. When they are finally gone some degree of scarring will occur, mild scars can disappear within six months but worse scars may need medical treatment to get rid of.

Someone who has a family history of acne may expect to also have acne in their teen years and cystic acne is mostly predominant in teens, adults are not so susceptible to this type of acne. It is now said that diet is not a real factor in getting acne, they now say it’s the family history, environment and a matter of skin care. Except for cystic pimples where a diet that is rich in fat with lack of fruits and vegetables may lead to nodules.

So look at your diet and try to make it more healthy by eating more vegetables, fruits and reduce as much junk food as possible. Do not forget to drink lots of water to help flush out the toxins.
