Will chemical-peel burn end up as a scar?

my cosmetishin burned my face with glycolic acid 30%, will it be a scar?

she first treated the now burned area with salicylic acid, she really pushed my face with her fingers and scratch with the cotton puuting this acid,then she put me a glycolic acid and left 5 mints, then she put a new layer for 5 more mints. she cleared my face, after half an hour my face swallowen very much

next day i went to doctor and he gave antibiotics, please, my only worry is if this is going to leave a scar on my face. the photo is taken 5-6 days after the peeling

I think this will lighten and as the skin naturally exfoliates every 35 days, see then, I think it will definitely improve
