yes you can micro needle over a cyst without issues if the cyst is not active.

You can microneedle over a sebaceous cyst as long as the cyst is not too superficial in the skin such that the needle can penetrate the cyst. You also cannot have any acute inflammation or infection of the cyst at the time of microneedling to reduce your risk of spreading an infection. Hope this helps!Johnson C.

If the cyst is not inflamed or draining, microneedling can be done. However, it might be best to have the cyst first removed, and then use microneedling to help minimize the scar.
