Cyst Injections (also known as intralesional corticosteroid injections) are a powerful, in-office acne treatment designed to quickly reduce inflammation, pain, and swelling in deep cystic breakouts. Whether it’s a hormonal jawline cyst, a painful flare-up before an event, or an underground zit that just won’t quit, this treatment can shrink it fast—often within 24–48 hours.
At Skinjectables, we treat inflamed acne lesions with precision and care, using a low-dose steroid injected directly into the cyst to flatten it safely without scarring or rupture.
✔ Rapid relief for large, painful acne cysts
✔ Minimizes scarring and hyperpigmentation
✔ Works within 24–48 hours
✔ Perfect for pre-event emergencies or ongoing cystic acne
You don’t have to wait out that cyst. Whether it’s your wedding week or just another hormonal breakout, we’ll calm the inflammation, shrink the swelling, and help your skin heal—fast.
A small amount of corticosteroid is injected directly into the cyst. You may feel a pinch or pressure, followed by immediate decompression.
✔ Slight redness or tenderness at the site
✔ Cyst begins shrinking within hours
✔ No downtime—resume your day as usual
The swelling, redness, and pain dramatically reduce. Most cysts flatten out by the second day.
✔ Pain is gone or significantly reduced
✔ Bump visibly shrinks or disappears
✔ Skin heals cleanly—no popping or scarring
Any residual redness fades and skin returns to baseline. Scarring is minimized and future breakouts in that area may be less likely.
✔ Clearer skin and smoother texture
✔ Reduced risk of dark spots or permanent scarring
✔ Optional follow-up if lesion was large
Your skin continues to repair and normalize beneath the surface.
✔ Skin fully returns to pre-breakout condition
✔ Cellular turnover promotes healthy skin renewal
✔ Area remains breakout-free in most cases
If you’ve got a deep, painful acne lesion that’s red, swollen, or cystic—yes. This treatment is perfect for hormonal cysts, nodular acne, or any lesion that’s not responding to topical treatments.
We inject a small amount of Kenalog (triamcinolone), a corticosteroid, directly into the inflamed cyst. It reduces swelling from the inside out by calming the immune response in the area—leading to fast flattening without rupturing the skin.
