MAFS’ Jessika Power reveals painful-looking rash around her mouth as she begs fans for advice: ‘I’ve been struggling with this for six months’
Married At First Sight star Jessika Power has asked her fans for help after battling a mystery skin condition for six months.
The Australian reality star, 31, posted to Instagram Stories on Saturday a close-up video of her chin and upper mouth covered in a painful-looking red rash.
“I hate to post this because I’m very self-conscious but I’ve been dealing with this rash for 6 months now and I’ve tried EVERYTHING and it won’t go away,” the British blonde complained in her caption.
Asking her fans for advice, Jessika added: ‘Can anyone explain what it is or what I can do to get rid of it? I’ve never had bad skin in my life.’
She further clarified that the red spots “are not pimples” and that the best way to describe the condition is a “raised rash.”

Her inbox was quickly flooded with responses from concerned followers, prompting Jessika to share a snippet of what she received in a separate post hours later.
Several fans suggested it could be perioral dermatitis, a facial skin problem characterized by areas of small red papules that are itchy and tender.
It is often caused by an allergic reaction to a substance that has come into contact with the skin, such as makeup or skin care products.

Another speculated that it is rosacea, a long-term condition in which the blood vessels in the face enlarge, causing red skin and pimples.
It comes after Jessika returned to the screens on the final season of MTV’s Celebrity Ex On The Beach.
Following her time on Married At First Sight Australia in 2019, Jessika moved to the United Kingdom to pursue a television career and to be with her then-boyfriend, British podcaster Connor Thompson.
