A member asked:

How can i get rid of cheek acne quickly?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No quick fix: Acne isn't curable though it eventually remits as you get older. Until then, acne confined to the cheeks can usually be eliminated by topical benzoyl peroxide and/or a salicylic acid wash. Use as tolerated. If this isn't sufficient, adding a topical antibiotic from your physician will probably be sufficient.
