Cystic Lesions on Man’s Chest

A 20-year-old man went to the doctor after noticing multiple cystic lesions that recently appeared on his trunk. The patient had scattered smooth papules, some of which were slightly yellow in appearance over his trunk. The lesion was not pruritic or bothersome, but he was distressed about how it looked.

Is it eruptive vellus hair cysts, epidermoid cysts, acne vulgaris, or steatocystoma multiplex?
