Should I wait for more healing after an acne cyst or should I do it now so that I can help remodel the scar? (Photos)

Asked By:michellemabelle85 in Portland, OR

I am currently healing from a large acne cyst on my cheek that got infected. It has been empty and healing for the last week, but has left me with raised scarring with a pit in the middle. However, I have seen a lot of improvement in just a week and have been using a silicone sheet almost 24/7. There are no longer any signs of infection or inflammation, just looking for how to minimize scarring.
