How Can Chronic Facial Cysts With Indentations Be Treated?

What can I do to get rid of and prevent my huge boils/cysts that I get on my face? I have had the issue for 5 years. Been to countless dermatologists, been on so mnay anti-biotics and the problem always comes back. They get so big they look like rings and have a depression in the center and they make the skin brittle so it cracks and opens. Does this sound like a cyst to you or does it sound like something else? Should I go get laser done or do you have any other suggestions?

Hi,

I'm resistant cases of Folliculitis, Oral rifampicin with Clindamycin for 3 to 4 month is commonly used. You should also avoid all the possible trauma to hair follicle that include shaving too.
