Asked By:kelsvargas in Provo, UT

I’ve been using lactic acid for a while now, I mix 25% with my moisturizer and I’ve been putting it on every day. Last night I put on way too much and it burned my face and now I have these horrible ugly marks on my skin, I don’t even want to go out in public. I’m very worried that they will scar, how can I heal them the best without scarring my face? I’ve been putting moisturizer, vitamin e oil, and aloe Vera on it.
