A member asked:
On accutane, where does the inside on a cyst go when left alone?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Accutane: Accutane treats acne by reducing oil production in skin glands, decreasing the buildup of cells that can clog pores and reducing skin inflammation. By reducing skin inflammation the acne cysts resolve.
