Is Clobetasol something that is typically prescribed for chemical burns from a facial?

JW_49598
I got a facial 48 hrs ago at a spa. The serum used was glycolic acid, lactic acid and salicylic acid and was supposed to be a routine, gentle facial. I ended up with chemical burns and went to see a NP at a derm office. I was prescribed Mupirocin and Clobetasol creams to use BID and have been applying Aquaphor in between. My sister is an MD and is concerned about the use of Clobetasol on my face on burned skin.
