Dealing with acne is annoying and, as emotionally traumatic as it is, dealing with cystic acne is even worse (if that's even possible). "Of all the types of acne someone can get, cystic acne is both the most frustrating to treat and can be the most damaging to the skin," says celebrity esthetician and founder of Renee Rouleau Skincare, Renee Rouleau. "Cystic acne consists of hard, painful blemishes that develop deep within the skin and can linger for weeks. They can often lead to scarring because they stretch and damage the surrounding tissue deep within skin, leaving indentations and red, dark or purple marks." Joy.

Here, six complexion clearing tips for those who suffer from cystic acne.
