Wax strip burn scar

2023-12-26 04:06:50
Initially when I used the strip it didn't cause any pain there was just redness over my upper lip region slowly it began leaving a mark. Firstly the skin could peel off i thought it would go away but till now it's been more than a week the scar remains it does not hurt or something but it left a scar on my upper lips any cream or gel i could use to get it off?
