cortisone injections?
Permalink Closed

Has anyone ever had this done?  I tend to get huge acne cysts on my chin, and daily candy recommended a place that offers it for only $25 for up to 4 sites.  how is effective is it, and is the effect immediate?

I've not had it done, but I've heard it's the go-to emergency method for most derms.  I think they say it should be gone in 24-48 hours depending, but I'm sure you'd be able to start seeing it work in a couple hours.

Do it, do it!  If the place is certified/licensed and all that jazz, of course.

My derm has done it before on me. iT IS NOT IMMEDIATE BUT IT DOES HELP THE CYSt TO GO AWAY.  HE SAYS IT'S REALLY THE ONLY WAY TO GET RID OF THEM. When I ge it done, it's actually covered by my insurance.  So save your $25 if your insurance covers it.
