Does she also have them on her back or arms?

Can you paste or email me a picture of these spots?

If not, are the spots circular?

Do they itch?

she does not have them on any other part of the body, just her face. Her patches were dry, and i have been moisturizing them and they dont seem to be as dry. i have a 1% cortosone cream that she uses at night.

Probably not as bad though?
