Red patches on face and around eyes

Hi

I have red patches on my face and around my eyes.They don’t itch and they are not sore.Some days they are worse than others.Could it be the B12 that is causing them?Does anyone else have the same problem.I thought it was makeup but it’s still there on days when I don’t wear any.Would be grateful for any input.Thanks

I get patches of dry skin since on B12 injections. Could be that. Also the b12 acne. My skin was really good before this defiency.

It's improved nearly a year on. But have had to use different moisturisers on different parts of face and neck!!

Before I used soap and water lol

Yes I suffer from it too. Around my chin, nose and above my eyes.

They go from red to dry and flakey back to red again

Yes I have 2 patches on my chin top of my eye lids and one one each cheek bone.

I suppose will just have to live with it.

Happy days.
