Suggest Remedy For Shingles On Face

Hi I ve had shingles on my face since February 2015. They are still present in the red blister form though they no longer burn or provide the tingly pain sensation. I thought it was shingles early on and went to the doctor only to be misdiagnosed with roseca and impetigo. I was mad when another doctor confirmed it was shingles. I m just wondering how long my face will stay this way and what I can do to get it back to. Normal.
