Hello,
As per your case history, your boyfriend probably has Rosacea. My treatment advice is -
1. Avoid sun exposure and use a good sunscreen lotion with SPF more than 30.
2. Apply a clindamycin gel-like Globin twice daily on the affected skin.
3. Take a vitamin c supplement once daily for three months. If the problem persists then consult a dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regard,
Dr. Harshit Bhachech
