Can anyone recommend a cream that helps with this. I have a patch on my cheek and it’s affecting my self confidence.

My GP prescribed ivermectin cream and it was amazing. I had tiny blisters all over my face and they cleared up, mostly, within 3 days.

I use a ceramide facial wash called Face Facts - it's a fiver from B&M and helps calm things down, amazing stuff for the price. I've tried 2 anti-redness creams so far: Avene Antirougeurs and Eucerin Antiredness soothing cream - about £20 each or maybe a little less, from Lookfantastic. I prefer the Avene but can see some difference with either. I slather on Curel Replenishing Night Cream at bedtime, again from Lookfantastic. Nothing is a silver bullet, but they do all help.

You may of course need something stronger like previous poster mentioned. Good luck with it!

The only thing that cleared up my rosacea was a course of metronidazole gel.

The Ordinary's Niacinamide serum worked really well for me
