What Causes Bumps And Rashes On Face?

Hi, my 7yr old has some bumps and rashes on her face. A dermatologist says it is vitamin deficiency without carrying out any test. I find this hard to believe because she takes a fruit a day and eats her vegetables well. So far, his treatment of salicyclic acid(5%) and locarcotene viliform hasn't worked in 6 months of treatment. It has reduced though but it is still very visible. She also takes vitamin supplements but I doubt if the diagnosis is right. What kind of test do I need to carry out?

The bumps and rash on face could be due to some alledgy but requires pictures of skin lesions to tell what it is exactly.
If there is no response to treatment, I suggest you to follow up as the doctor may review ghe condition and will advise further.
