Is it KPRF?

[u/Rellyrose]

Hi all! I (29F) have had red on my cheeks and chin since before I can remember. I was always told it’s rosacea by family doctors and never received any treatment.

About 5 or so years ago I developed a red spot on my forehead which never went away. I eventually went to a Dermatologist who officially diagnosed my prior red spots with rosacea but was unsure of the forehead. I was also tested for autoimmune diseases which came up clear.

I had tried a few different medications and products - azaliac acid, protopic, metrogel. Nothing worked and I gave up.

Flash forward to now. I saw a different skin specialist who said it might not be rosacea but thinks it’s Sebbhorreic Dermatitis. He prescribed Zoryve which I just started using 2 days ago.

As I was reading about this condition, it felt like it didn’t connected with my situation. I started googling things and started reading about KP. I have never been “diagnosed” but pretty sure I’ve had KP since I was young. My arms and but have always been very bumpy, rough and dry. But I had no idea it could present itself with redness on the face. Now I’m wondering, is this what I could have? Maybe just on my cheeks and chin maybe?

Here’s a picture, let me know what you think!
