I understand your concern.
This query has been forwarded to our dermatologist in the panel and she has requested you to share some pictures of your face, so that she can get a better idea about the rash and the pimples. This will help her assess the situation better.
So, I will request you to upload the same, or send the pictures as jpeg image format to [email protected]
Hope this was helpful,

Here are some pictures. They are not visible on the camera but if you will take a closer look at it, you will notice the redness on my face. Hope this helps. Thank you.
Hi,
Thanks for sending the pics.
This redness and small eruptions over face are induced by cosmetics only. In such cases I usually prescribe my patients tab vitamin c 500 mg twice daily along with application of mild steroid cream like fluticasone or hydrocortisone cream mixed in calamine lotion to be applied twice daily. Also do ice cold water compresses over face. Lesions usually clear in a week. Do not use any cosmetic over face till lesions are gone. It is always better to start medicines after consulting a dermatologist nearby.
Hope this helped.
Take care

Hi Dr Pathak,
Thank you for your reply.
How long should I take Vit C? If this redness are lesions cause by cosmetics, can I continue using Hydroface after the lesions disappear? Have you heard of this product, would you recommend this as safe to use?
Hi,
I usually prescribe vitamin C for a period of two weeks to a month. Once the lesions are gone, you may continue hydroface. I was not aware about the product but I checked it on internet and it seems to contain good antiageing ingredients. You may also talk to your dermatologist to prescribe antiageing products as per your skin type. In my patients I usually prescribe vitamin c serum, hyaluronic acid cream and a good sunscreen to prevent skin ageing.
Hope this helped.
Take care.
