I had keratosis pilarus and got medicine to treat it. the bumps are gone now and i still have a red pigment on my cheeks. how do i get rid of it.

KP: Generally redness associated with keratosis pilaris will improve in the warmer months . Moisturizing creams and sunscreen as well as retin a (tretinoin) cream often are prescribed to reduce the bumps and fade the redness.
