Hi , waxing on face is not advisable & can lead to rashes and burn marks on face if done inappropriately. Soframycin is an antibacterial cream which you could use till the time you seek consultation.

Apply soframycin as of now. Don’t remove or scratch if you get any dead or dry skin whilst it is healing otherwise it could leave marks.
