A cyst on the face usually starts as a small bump under the skin. It can be painless at first and may gradually grow in size. Cysts develop when a pore or hair follicle gets blocked, causing a buildup of sebum (oil) or keratin (skin protein). This leads to the formation of a sac-like structure filled with fluid, debris, or sometimes pus. If you have concerns about a cyst on your face, it’s advisable to consult a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and potential treatment options.
