3 years is a while: A person with 3 years of rash or other skin lesions on the face can be evaluated by a dermatologist to see what is going on. A primary care doctor can also evaluate, looking at the entire patient to see if there is some disorder that happens to show up as a face rash. Treatments from the dermatologist should be helpful.
