I'm 39 and suddenly developed a small red patch of acne which has come up in the same place on both cheeks of my face.. how do I get rid of them as normal acne cream isn't working. I don't suffer with it normally, last time I had acne was when I was in my teens.

Are you positive it's not rosacea? Rosacea.org: The National Rosacea Society (http://www.rosacea.org/index.php)

Had you been out in the sun or drinking alcohol?

Bingo -- Judy hit what I was leading up to.
