Hi,
With short history, it seems that the reddish elevated lesion on face near ear may be cherry angioma, also called de Morgan spot. It is benign condition, and be kept untreated. If you feel embarassing, it may be removed by electrocautery under local anaesthesia. The procedure is simple done in OPD. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
