[|Human|] Hi, Im a guy and got my face waxed 2 days ago. I have a noticeable burn on my upper lip which seems darker than the burns on my cheeks and neck. Now the lady at the salon who did it for me as well as a friend of mine who had it done about a year back say I should give it at least a week or so to cool off since its not unheard of. Ive been applying aloe vera for the last two days and recently bought a vitamin-e oitment for healing. Please help, what should I do? Go see a doctor, dermatologist, skin/laser specialist, etc.
[|AI|]  Hello. Thanks for writing to us at Chat Doctor A burn due to waxing can well take up to a week to subside. However, it is a minor issue, and you need not worry as it would completely resolve. If I was the treating doctor I would have asked you to use a moderately potent topical steroid e.g. fluticasone propionate 0.05% cream, twice daily for a few days. A topical steroid would certainly heal it faster. However, it is a prescription product therefore you can only get it if you have got it prescribed from a doctor. Therefore, Yes, you can go to a dermatologist for the needful. Regards
