Will a Chemical Peel Fix irritation from Cetaphil lotion?

Chris22
I used WAY to much cetaphil lotion all over my face. I thought my skin was dry but it was actually the lotion that dried on my face making it feel dry and flaky. Now my face is so red, so itchy, and really irritated. And when I scratch the itchy parts red bumps will form on my face, (not pimples), but irrated red patches. I have a dermatologist appointment in 2 months but I'm really worried about this...I feel so itchy and its not getting better. PLEASE HELP!
