I had halo and bbl on Friday morning. I have been putting Cicalfate on 4-6 times per day and have gently washed my face each night. My face feels like sandpaper. Tonight my chin started to itch and flake. I gently itched it and skin flacked off and now it has some pink spots. Could this caused scaring?

HI,
I assume this was on the face, if it was, this is too long for these issues to be occurring and I would recommend your provider to take a look. If it was on the neck or chest (off the face) the healing can be delayed, but typically not this long, but sometimes yes.
