Subcutaneous pimple
The subcutaneous pimple is a common and benign condition. Its nature, severity, causes, and the available aesthetic solutions are all varied.
A painful subcutaneous pimple can be a source of discomfort and aesthetic concern for many people.
With its experience and expertise in treating this condition, the Victoria Park Medispa clinic is here to guide its clients toward solutions tailored to their needs.
What are the origins of subcutaneous pimples?
Hormonal changes (puberty, pregnancy, or menstrual cycle) can disrupt the skin’s natural balance. Genetic predispositions play a crucial role in the appearance of this condition. Lifestyle habits (diet rich in fatty or sugary foods, smoking, chronic stress, and lack of proper skin hygiene) can also contribute to the formation of subcutaneous pimples. Finally, skin trauma caused by wearing tight clothing or using harsh products can irritate hair follicles and lead to the formation of pimples. Over time, triggers can evolve, especially with skin aging. For example, hormonal fluctuations may become less frequent with age, but other environmental or lifestyle factors may continue to influence skin health. Regardless of the cause of the subcutaneous pimple, it is still possible to have it treated at a medical-aesthetic clinic. Victoria Park Medispa offers patients the chance to regain smooth and even skin with medical excision.

Subcutaneous pimple:
available treatments
The approaches offered by the medical-aesthetic team at Victoria Park Medispa to treat subcutaneous pimples vary depending on the severity of the condition and the patient’s preferences, ranging from non-invasive solutions to surgical interventions. One can start with lifestyle changes, such as a balanced diet, stress management, and good skin hygiene.
Warm compresses and topical or oral medications can also be used to reduce inflammation and prevent future outbreaks of subcutaneous pimples.
For more severe or persistent cases, medical procedures including treatments such as chemical peels, microneedling, or pulsed light therapy will be recommended. These specifically target inflamed hair follicles and help reduce the appearance of subcutaneous pimples.
Surgical excision may also be considered to remove a painful subcutaneous pimple on the face, cysts, or deep lesions under the skin. These procedures are usually performed under local anesthesia. It is essential that treatments are personalized based on specific factors for each patient (age, overall health, and severity of the condition). The expected results vary depending on the chosen treatment, with gradual improvements in skin appearance and a reduction in recurrences.

Subcutaneous pimple: advice before
and after surgical excision
At Victoria Park Medispa, before surgical excision, patients are recommended to participate in a detailed preliminary consultation with their surgeon. This consultation will allow for an in-depth discussion of the patient’s medical history, expectations, and the surgical procedure. It is also important for the patient to inform the surgeon of any current medication, including supplements and over-the-counter drugs.
After surgical excision, it is essential to carefully follow the instructions provided by the professional at Victoria Park Medispa. This may include taking prescribed medications to manage pain and prevent infections, as well as specific recommendations for wound care and activities to avoid during the recovery period. The patient should be vigilant for any signs of infection or complications and should immediately contact the surgeon if any issues arise.
Open and continuous communication between the patient and the medical team is crucial to ensure a successful recovery. The patient should feel comfortable asking questions or sharing concerns, and the medical team will be available to provide support and guidance throughout the process.
