What is an atypical treatment for acne cysts/lesions?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
"Atypical"?: There are treatments that work, and treatments that don't. For cystic acne, especially if you're not a female who might be cleared with spironolactone or the birth control pill, Isotretinoin is by far your best option if you're willing to brave it.
