Did I give myself a chemical burn with 25% TCA peel? I have really red areas and dark brown spots

I did a 25% TCA Peel 3 nights ago. My cheeks frosted really well, when they did I put neutralizer on them. next day my cheeks and some other areas are really pink and have dark brown spots. These really red spots make me feel like I burned and might scar. It doesn’t hurt, but it hasn’t started to peel yet like other spots. What can I do to treat it if it is burnt? Ive done one before either 10/15 and had great results. I’m using burn cream and essential oils mixed in coconut oil for moisturizer
