How should I treat my raw skin after salicylic acid peel? (photo)

Volleygirl93
I have raw skin on my face from a salicylic acid peel. I need help on how to treat it so i don't scar. I had my peel done 2 days ago. When I was in class my skin started to break and I peeled it off (my doctor didn't tell me not to peel it off). So when I peeled it off, the skin was pink and it was brown everywhere else so I kept peeling it off on my chin area. But I thought it was okay to peel because when I pulled it, it came off really easily and did not bleed. She told me to put BLUE EMU CREAM on it, so i have constantly kept it on. Is there anything else I should do???
