Asked By:dee2011 in Ohio, OH

I got a chemical peel 20 days ago and the day after my peel my upper lip was basically burned. It scabbed and was very pink and sensitive underneath. Now it is dark brown and I want to know the best recommendation for treatment? I went back to the place I got it done at after 2 weeks and they told me it’s still healing and to come back in 2 weeks. I didn’t agree so I went to another dermatologist and they said that it’s PIH. I am looking for opinions on whether or not this can be treated?
