Asked By:Thriving4940 in Boston, MA

I had plasma pen treatment on my upper, lower and mouth area…I picked some scabs around my mouth on day 4 and they left bright pinkish marks. The amount of scabbing is making me nervous since I have an important engagement in 7 days which will place me 11 days from the plasma treatment. Is the scabbing I have normal and will I at least be able to use makeup to cover scars for my engagement in 7 days ? I am assuming the pink area where I picked some of the scabs will fade over time ?
