Still Red After 3 Months After Tca Peel

I received a tca peel a little over 3 months ago and my cheeks at very red and The white heads that developed right after initial peel are still present. The redness are are surrounding by definitive lines (where the tca peel was most applied). I went back for follow ups and doc says this is normal and it should go away after a couple of weeks and told me to apply hydroquinone 4% twice a day (morning and night). I want a second opinion on the healing and how it looks.
