Hello! I am a 20 year old female who has really never dealt with any type of acne or irregular skin issues. However, around December of 2023, I started to notice that the top of my cheeks/temple area felt dry. Didnt think anything of it but it kept feeling dryer. The first photo was taken in February when I noticed it started to get flaky and sometimes itchy, but it was pretty much only on the left side of my face. Additionally, the small area where my sideburn is and outer ear was feeling the same way (only on left side as well). I immediately stopped using any type of product on my hair and face, except face moisturizer and occasionally blush for makeup. The second picture was taken beginning of March and the flakiness went away, but now I have a bunch of tiny bumps that still feel dry. Can anyone please help?

This doesn't look like acne. You'll want to make an appointment with a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis.

Perhaps this is due to allergies or a change in the climate in which you live. Have you moved recently?
