Hello
Cyst of labia minora has no relation to acne.
Acne happens due to blockade of sebaceous glands,
Cysts are usually infective in nature.
Probably you are suffering from recurrent furunculosis.
It is a recurrent bacterial infection.
You need treatment with oral antibiotics.
Please meet a dermatologist and discuss.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
