Hi sweety,

Welcome to HCM.
Avoid rubbing the cheeks frequently. Wash the face regularly with warm water so that the circulation in the area improves, helping in restoration of the original colour. Apply NOMARKS cream, which is available in all medical shops.
Don't worry, the skin colour will be restored gradually.
Wish you all the best.

Hi Sweety,
Welcome to HCM.
Read your problem,since the skin is burnt it takes very long time to cure and the repair process should happen on its own.You can just use a moisturiser on it, nothing much can be done as your dermatologist has told.
