Asked By:hosienb in Bronx, NY

I have been doing laser removal on my legs for a year. I just had one season a few days ago and got burned. I have been using natural aloe and after sun aloe Vera with lidocaine. The first day was painful. Now I do not feel anything and all there is all these dark circle. I would like to know if this will leave permanent scars and what can I do to make it heal faster. Can I use sunscreen, coconut oil to make more moist. I feel like it gets dry easily. Your opinion will very much appreciated. Thank you.
