Hello, Welcome to healthcare magic. From your history and description, I would like to consider acne rosacea as a differential diagnosis along with acne vulgarism. I suggest that you stop the facial roller as it could contribute to the redness and irritation. Use a gel containing clindamycin phosphate in the morning and at bedtime. Avoid sunlight exposure. Use a mild cleanser like cetaphil cleansing liquid to wash your face. If these measures are not bringing the lesions under control, you could take oral doxycycline once a day for 4- 6 weeks. Have a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables. Hope this helps you. Take care.
