At home Aha bha peeling solutions are only supposed to be put for 10-15min followed by cold water rinse and proper skincare.
Always do a patch test before applying anything to your face directly.
This can also be the post peeling effects and can give you desired results.
But if these symptoms persist for too long, kindly consult online with a Cosmetologist

You could have used it for duration longer than required oor a prescription based peel which was not meant to be used at home. Either ways you could be having post peel pigmentation and dermatitis. You should consult a dermatologist at the earliest to prevent any long term

Hello 👋
Always do a patch test on a small area to check for any reaction.
Initially, don’t apply it all over without a second thought.
Either your skin is very sensitive to the chemical peeling solution, or it may be showing post-peel effects that can lead to better outcomes.
If edema, peeling, dryness, or redness persists for a longer duration without subsiding, it’s better to consult
Various treatment modalities are available
Next Steps
do consult online Dermatologist for better cosmetic results
