Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It does look like atopic eczema which are inflamed rashes found especially on the cheeks of the infants. You need to start her on a very mild steroidal cream: twice a day along with intense moisturizing for at least 3-4 times a day. Also switch to mild hypoallergic moisturizing soaps for her shower. None the less, kindly get it reviewed by the concerned doctor for proper dosage.
