On LIsinopril, Shaved Head, Always Red On My Forehead, Cheeks And Nose. Is This Related To The Lisinopril?

I m on 20 MG LIsinopril . I have a shaved head and I am always red on my head, especially the forehead , cheeks and nose . I feel like I have a bad sunburn , but have not been directly in the sun. I usually where a hat. This has been going on for a couple of years and no one can tell me why I am flushed all the time. Is this related to the lisinopril?
