Scared at, frightened at

1. She was scared at his bruised face.

2. She was scared at me.

3. She was frightened at his bruised face.

4. She was frightened at me.

Could you tell me which ones are acceptable and correct English?

I know we normally use "scared of" or "frightened by", but I wonder whether they can be correct with the preposition "at".
