I did a 35% glycol peel at home, only and the skin on my cheeks is quite rough & feels a little scaly and dry, what should I do?

I prepared my skin as recommended and am used to using 10% strength quite regular. I suffer with mild to moderate acne and this seems to reduce the amount of acne and brighten the skin as well as dry out the blemishes. Have I over done it with the 35%. I only left the peel on for 2mins, neutralised but it did feel warm 4a few hours after. It isn't sore or red just as I run my fingers over the skin it feels scaly & rough as if it needs to peel around my cheeks and lower jaw.. What should I do?
