Will Isotretinoin help get rid of cyst on cheek?

Asked By:iliak in Natte Yallock, Victoria, Australia

Hi there, I've had a sebaceous cyst on my cheek for a few years and it occasionally flares up due to various triggers (shaving, creams). The flares are starting to affect me, but i have hope that the cyst will eventually pass. I've been on isotretinoin for 8 months (10mg for 5, 20mg for 4) and my skin is clearing up, however, will this help get rid of the cyst on my cheek? I'd really prefer to avoid surgery as I do not want a scar on my cheek. For context, I’m 92kg, Male, 6’3 ft
