@dr_ingky: You have deep, painful bumps that feel like they’re under your skin This could be cystic acne, a severe form of inflammatory acne that can cause deep nodules, swelling, and a higher risk of scarring. What helps: • Benzoyl Peroxide → Helps reduce acne-causing bacteria and inflammation • Adapalene → Helps prevent clogged pores and new breakouts • Azelaic Acid → Helps calm inflammation and fade post-acne marks • Gentle Cleanser + Moisturizer → Supports your skin barrier while treating acne • SPF 50+ → Helps prevent dark marks from becoming more noticeable Avoid squeezing or popping cystic acne. It can increase inflammation and raise the risk of scarring. If your breakouts are deep, painful, frequent, or leaving scars, see a dermatologist.
