I have waxed my chin and lower lip area. After that, i got the brownish thick layer on my chin and lower lips. The thick layer removed itself from both the places but i didnt got any scar on chin. its completely fine just after 5 6 days but on lower lips i got a scar (brownish reddish) Attaching picture with this. What can i do about the scar to go away and how much time it will take to go. Please tell. Thanks in advance (It have been more than 1 week now of getting waxed.) The first photo is of condition today.
The second photo was of condition on 3rd 4th day after wax, when the skin gets peeled.
