Cystic Acne Treatment in Montreal & Laval – Real Help for Deep, Painful Breakouts
Cystic acne is one of the most severe and stubborn forms of acne. It develops deep under the skin, often causing red, swollen, and painful bumps that don’t respond to typical over-the-counter products. Left untreated, it can lead to long-term scarring and skin damage.
At New Age Spa, we specialize in non-invasive, medical-grade skincare solutions to treat cystic acne in Montreal and Laval. Whether you’re dealing with breakouts on your face, jawline, back, or chest, we offer advanced treatments that soothe inflammation, prevent future cysts, and support long-term skin recovery.
What Is Cystic Acne?
Cystic acne forms when oil, bacteria, and dead skin cells get trapped deep in the pores, triggering intense inflammation. Unlike surface-level pimples, these breakouts:
Are painful to the touch
Appear as red, swollen lumps
Do not come to a head
Can last weeks at a time
Often result in scarring or hyperpigmentation
Cystic acne is commonly linked to:
Hormonal imbalances (e.g. PCOS, stress, puberty)
Genetics
Diet and lifestyle factors
Improper skin care or clogged pores

Frequently Asked Questions – Cystic Acne Treatment
1. Can facials help with cystic acne?
Yes, when done professionally. Our facials are designed to calm inflammation, cleanse safely, and support the skin barrier without causing further irritation.
2. Will extractions be done on cystic acne?
Only when it’s safe. Trying to extract a deep cyst prematurely can cause more inflammation. We focus on reducing swelling first.
3. How many treatments will I need?
Most clients need 4–6 treatments for visible improvement. Maintenance may be monthly depending on skin response and lifestyle.
4. Can I do PicoSure laser while I still have cystic acne?
No, it’s best to wait until active inflammation has decreased. We use PicoSure for scarring, pigmentation, and texture correction after breakouts heal.
5. Is it safe for darker skin tones?
Yes. All our treatments, including laser and peels, are customized for every skin tone, including Fitzpatrick IV–VI.
