Significantly Burned with Diode Lightsheer Lazer 5 Days Ago? (photo)

HappyGirlSA
Hi. Please could you assist me with any advice possible in treating these burns. I went for lazer hair removal approximately 5 days ago in South Africa using the diode lightsheer and my legs all the way up my thighs have been severly burnt. I was advised to use zam buk until the blisters heal and then to start using bio oil. However I am extremely worried that my legs are going to be scarred and have many marks? How could i minimise the scarring? will microdermabrasion help? PLEASE HELP!!!
