Suggestion Of Cure For Peeling Of Skin Caused Due To Wax Strips
Hello, I just used Veet wax strips. I noticed my skin was redder than usual after I wax on my arm, and then noticed that actually a layer of skin was peeled off. It is quite red, however I have applied neosporin and looks a bit lighter now. I am assuming this is very superficial and will not leave a scar, right?

Peeling of hairs may lead to folliculitis. If there is redness just keep calm and don't use any ointments.
