Red markings of spider veins left on face after chemical peel. Help! (photos)

emmaS23
I had obagi radiance chemical peel with 2 coatings 10 days ago it is suppose to be gentle and cause mild peeling! I have been left with red markings on my face and spider veins are redder and more visible on my checks. The markings look like deeper red capillaries that have emerged. My skin is normal but sensitive and fine with mild rosacea. Im worried this has been too much for my face and i will be left with these new spider vein red markings and increased flush. Will these be permanent? Help!
