I did a microdermabrasion followed by a chemical peel exactly one week later. Worried I might have minor burns

Bee161
I did a microdermabrasion then exactly 7 days following did a chemical peel. Granted we did four layers however, I have NEVER peeled so much. Nor have I ever experienced a stinging sensation when putting on moisturizer. My face is red and warm on my cheeks on either side of my nose and on my chin near the corners of my mouth and the space between my lower lip and chin. It goes down after a while but I'm worried I might have minor burns. It has been 5 days since the peel, when should I be concerned.
