The cysts can be removed via excision, though conventional cyst excision techniques have proven impractical, and a specialized regimen is required. Cryotherapy and electrosessication may also be tried, but since it is genetic disorder all the modalities have very little effect. Individual cysts can be removed surgically. In most cases,<unk> all incisions (cuts into the skin) allow the cyst and its contents to be extracted through the opening. If it is tethered to the underlying skin, excision biopsy may be necessary. Cysts can also be removed by laser, electrosurgery or cryotherapy. Inflammation can be reduced with oral antibiotics. Oral isotretinoin is not curative but may temporarily shrink the cysts and reduce inflammation.
