Treatment options

It's been sometime since I have updated, sorry all but I'm kind of busy lately. Not to worry though, I will make it a point to continue to update this space.

I have come across this specific method for the extraction of the cysts. I will attach a link to the pdf stipulating the method below. You guys can discuss with your dermatologist regarding this extraction method. It seem to be a fast way (about 1 min per cyst), and outlook after surgery is good. Hypopigmentation with little recurrence, as the extraction method involves the scrapping of the sebaceous glands and extraction of cyst wall.

Of course, I won't be undergoing this just yet. But definitely I will discuss this with my derm should I seek further treatments.

To those who are interested the link is as such:

SM is not the end of the world, we can overcome this together :)
