Did my skin developed rosacea after clearing acne?

I've been trying to soothe my skin for months using different aloe vera gels. I've also tried multiple facial washes to get rid of the redness of my cheeks. After months of tretinoin ( 2017) , my skin cleared up drastically and aloe vera gel help smoothen and improve the dryness and dullness of the medication. I already stop tret last 2018. I have clear skin for the past year, But this year I am afraid my skin is at crisis again. My cheeks feel so tender to touch , they have red patches that doesn't go away. These patches sometimes develop small red bumps. It looks like mild rosacea but I am not sure. Now my skin looks raw and rough. My pores also look bigger than ever. What should I do?

Just read this. Have you had a chance to talk to your dermatologist about it?

I don't know your age, but you look way too young for rosacea, which comes only after the age of 30.

Best to see a dermatologist, but it could be patches of seborrheic dermatitis/mild fungal acne.
