Hun, I have the same type of acne as you may have. Just try to read about it as much as you can, it will help you a lot if you know more about it than less, like how it is caused, how you can help it, what it is, and how you get it. My only advice would be: go see a dermatologist. They are specialized in skin care and they will know what to do with you. I have not yet gone to one but it would be an idea.
Cystic acne is a severe case of acne, and it is usually deep into the layers of skin. It is usually painful too. Now don't let this scare you. Just go see a dermatologist, they are out to help you. One tip of adivce, please do not touch them, pick at them, pop them, squeeze them or rub them. It will do you no good at all. It will just infect them more, especially with popping them. It could also lead to scarring.
Hope this helps, good luck!

Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.
In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.
Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.
In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.
If you would like to learn how to treat your acne permanently and regain your health and wellbeing, without drugs, without typical acne treatments, and without any side effects, then this will be the most important letter you will ever read.

There is no cure. However, there things you can do.
I have been suffering with acne since I was a kid. Here are a few things that seem to work for me:
- Take flaxseed oil capsules (1000 mg), one in the morning, and one at night, preferably after a meal. Take a multi-vitamin once daily as well. After about a month or so, my skin started glowing, and people could see the change.
- Cut back on foods like bread and rice, or avoid them all together (http://www.reuters.com/article/healthNews/idUSKRA27320020070822)
- If you don't want to use face washes with harsh chemicals, visit the Origins store and ask for recommendations. They use a lot of natural ingredients. I use three of their products: Checks & Balances face wash, Balanced Diet lotion, and Night-a-Mins lotion.
- Drink green tea regularly, 2-3 cups per day. This helps with the inflammation.
I'm certain that you'll see results in 1-2 months if you follow the above suggestions. I can't guarantee that your face will be completely clear, but I am positive that you will notice a difference.
