Cystic Acne Nanaimo
Advanced Relief for Deep, Painful Acne Lesions in Nanaimo

Cystic acne is one of the most challenging forms of acne to manage. These deep, inflamed breakouts develop beneath the skin's surface and can be painful, persistent, and more likely to leave behind scarring.
At Your Skin Magician in Nanaimo, we focus on calming inflammation, supporting skin healing, and creating customized treatment plans that help protect your skin long term.
Understanding Cystic Acne
Cystic acne often presents as:
Large, painful bumps beneath the skin
Breakouts that linger for weeks
Redness and swelling around active lesions
Acne that rarely comes to a visible head
A higher risk of acne scarring
Trying to squeeze or aggressively treat cystic acne at home can worsen inflammation and increase the chance of scarring.
Treatment Options
Depending on your skin, treatment may include:
LED Light Therapy
Barrier repair treatments
Medical-grade skincare
Our approach is focused on reducing inflammation and helping your skin heal comfortably and safely.
