Hi,
Do you have irregullar periods, are you gaining weight? Do you notice hair on the face?
If these are redbumps with redness around the surrounding skin not responding to conventional treatment mostly like Acne rosacea.
I suggest to upload pictures here.
They need high patience and less stress to vanish. I find at least 6 months for them to treat by special modalities.

Brief Answer:
Dermatologist treatment
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for sharing the pictures.
They look like Acne rosacea and I could find that the neighboring skin was also changed because of various treatments tried.
I suggest a dermatologist treatment as medications are prescription based and nothing can be tried over the counter. It would further damage the skin.
So be patient, trust in the dermatologist that you choose.
