My husband had probably the worst cystic acne I'd ever seen. It was so bad that the Doctor took pictures... Anyways, he had tried numerous pills and ointments too and after years, they prescribed him what's called Accutane. It was a miracle drug or something. It cleared up his face, back, sholders, everything in like 3 months. Look into it. It does have some serious sideeffects. At first it really dried his skin out. Even his lipswere pealing... and then it cleared it all. When you're on it, you get your blood checked every few weeks-month because it can cause serious damage to your liver. BUT my husband was MISERABLE with his acne so he gave it a try. The worst side affect he had was the dry skin and after about a month that went away. He still has skars BUT the scars have faded A LOT. I don't think theyll ever ALL go away completely but some of them have disappeared! Here's a lil info... http://www.acne.org/accutane.html AND a before and after: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSvBod3XDn0
Answer by Stephanie
My boyfriend has the same problem. The dermatologist just told him Accutane is his best bet. This acne is the hardest kind to get rid of. But before you take it, I suggest you see a dermatologist and look up the side effects. This should permanantly get rid of your acne, but the side effects seem risky. Other options I've heard of are Tetracycline, Differin, Retin-A-Micro, Benzaclin, and chemical peels. Hope this helps =]

Cystic acne occurs on the face chest, back and upper arms. The cyst is a result of total disintegration of a comedo. Adjacent comedones may breakdown and fuse to create a large epithelial lined cyst. An abscess results from disintegration of the comedo and the abscess destroys surrounding follicles. Hemorrhage and purulent material accumulate. Surrounding glands and follicles are destroyed. Acute inflammation ensues and a foreign body reactions occur. Granulation tissue forms and scarring is the end stage. An acne cyst is not a true cyst. True cysts are round structures lined by epithelium. The cyst fills with keratin a nd in most case enlarges and remains intact. Occasionally they rupture and exude their contents into the surrounding tissue. This stimulates an intense inflammatory reaction. Cystic or nodular acne can be a devastating disease. It is not possible to predict which patients will develop this severe form of acne. Family history may be important. The disease lasts longer and is more intense in males. Cystic acne may evolve from papulopustular acne or may be explosive form the onset. Large deep cysts may smolder and evolve into draining sinuses. These are seen primarily on the cheeks and neck. Epithelial lined tracks are submerged in the dermis. They accumulate blood serum and purulent ... Acne At 30 Males
