hey so I've suffered with severe cystic acne in the past and was prescribed accutane. it cleared up relatively quickly and i was acne free for a while, but persisting redness was pretty evident. i didn't really complain much because my skin felt nice and i felt it was a small price to pay. a couple months ago i started waking up with rashes and blotchy spots on my face where it seemed the skin had been rubbed off in my sleep. i drew the line here and went to see a dermatologist. i was prescribed triamcinolone acetonide ointment and it took care of the rashes, and lessened the severity of my redness. about a week back after not using the ointment for a while, my symptoms returned. i took these two pictures after my first week back on the ointment. i'm not getting any skin rubbed off, but my skin is still very noticeably red. it's bearable in warm or soft lighting, but harsh lighting/flash is a death sentence. any advice would be greatly appreciated
