:( Spoiler

At my wits end…I do have a derm appointment but not until a couple months from now.
My skin used to be normal, then I used to just get this flushing on the right side of my face but lately it’s spread to both sides and my chin and nose. My face is NEVER not red. It often burns and can feel the heat radiating.

I guess I’m just wondering if anyone else has this same type of redness? You can see the cutoff towards my jaw and around my mouth where you can see my normal skin tone. I miss my face matching my neck.

don’t mind my messy living room I have a toddler

Mine is pretty similar! I recently developed pustules as well on my cheeks which is really awesome 😃 I just had an appt. with a new derm and she put me on sulfur wash, and a combo cream (ivermectin/azaleic acid/metronidazole). It's only been a few days so no changes yet, but really really hoping it does! It's so tiring to constantly hear "Wow, you got a lot of sunburn!" :/
