Sunburn (no blister, only red) on cheeks

2019-04-09 13:40:55
Is is normal to have the redness until all the damaged skin peels off as light peeling has already started after 6-8 days..and is it normal to have light increase in redness in between the healing period due to hot temp. (No direct sunlight)..is it normal?

All that you’ve described is normal. But, are you not using a sunscreen now? Your skin will still be sensitive post sunburn and it is very important to protect it with a good sunscreen.
