Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your daughter have symptoms of rosacea acne on her cheeks. Need not to worry. I Would suggest you to :-

Exfoliate gently once or twice a day with a salicylic acid-based exfoliant .

Apply benzoyl peroxide cream or gel for killing the bacteria in the pore .

Wash your face using a mild soap or cleanser and lukewarm water .

Avoid greasy creams ,use water based products.

If condition doesn't improve in a week then consult dermatologist for proper diagnosis.

Doctor may prescribe oral antibiotics like clindamycin , Isotretinoin or Hormone Therapy.

Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
