Cyst Injection
Cysts are common skin concerns that can appear anywhere on the body — often as swollen, tender lumps beneath the skin. They can become inflamed, painful, or infected, especially when located on visible or high-friction areas like the face, neck, back, or scalp.
A Cyst Injection is a minimally invasive treatment used to reduce inflammation, pain, and swelling associated with cystic acne or sebaceous cysts. The procedure involves injecting a small dose of corticosteroid (anti-inflammatory medication) directly into the cyst, which helps flatten and shrink it within a few days.
This treatment is especially beneficial for painful or large cysts, as it provides quick relief and prevents potential scarring or infection — all without the need for surgical removal.

What to Expect During the Procedure
-
Consultation: The dermatologist examines the cyst to ensure it’s suitable for injection and rules out infection or abscess formation.
-
Preparation: The area is cleaned and disinfected before the injection.
-
Injection: A fine needle is used to deliver a small amount of corticosteroid solution directly into the cyst. The injection itself takes only a few seconds and is generally well tolerated.
-
Post-Treatment: The treated area may appear slightly red for a few hours. The cyst typically starts shrinking within 1–3 days.
Aftercare Tips
-
Avoid touching, squeezing, or pressing the treated area for at least 24 hours.
-
Keep the area clean and avoid applying makeup or skincare products directly on it for the first day.
-
Avoid excessive sun exposure until redness subsides.
-
Follow your dermatologist’s advice for any follow-up treatments if needed.
