Rough Patches Normal After Phenol Peel?

User Avatar

I'm aware that the healing process after a Phenol Peel takes a while. However, 2 weeks after receiving Phenol Peel under my eyes and the skin is vey rough in patches. They're almost like tiny hard clusters of whelps. Is this just a part of the typical healing process or should I contact my doctor? If it is indeed typical, how long does this phase of healing usually last? I don't like covering the redness with makeup because it is extremely difficult to remove. Please help.
