I have a small, reddish looking mark on my jawline that's been there a few days. Last week, before I had this mark, my derm had given me Duac, which was much to strong for my skin, so I stopped using it. The rest of my face has long since recovered, but this mark looks dark and tender, like the skin peeled off too fast. I'm guessing it's from the Duac and will take a while to heal, but I just wanted to make sure that these kinds of things weren't common for people with Rosacea...

My guess is this will heal in time.
Here I go again with my zinc ointment recommendation... soothes irritation and accelerates the healing process. Also Calendula has good healing properties.

Yes anything that upsets the skin can take a while to calm down. I would suggest taking some antihistamines tablet to help reduce any inflammation.
