I have been struggling with these tiny bumps on my cheeks since I could remember (age 15-26). I have been on countless regiments and nothing has worked to get rid of these. They tend to get better and worse at times (inflammation?) almost like a rash. Has anyone else experienced this and had something work?
I have tried most acne treatments and even fungal acne treatment. This is my routine currently:
Cleanse with Cetaphil gentile skin cleanser
Moisturize with cereve lotion
Tone with Mario bascue glycolic toner
Treat with differin (have been using this for about a year and it has helped some but had a 9mo purge period)
I would recommend trying a gel with salicyclic acid. Salicyclic acid enters the pores deeply and dissolves anything clogging them (hardened sebumor keratin)
Use At least 2%, but best would be a little stronger so ask your pharmacist to make a 6% alcohol free salicyclic acid gel.
Best of luck.
