What Causes Red Rash Around Mouth?

Hello,
A red rash developed around my mouth as of 2 months ago. I did go on a low-carb diet and presumed that it might be a reaction to my kidney being over worked from eating so much protein. However, I have been eating a carb heavy diet this past week and it is still very prominent and looks as though it may be spreading to my cheek area.
Could you advise me as to what this is please?
