What Causes The Skin On Face To Turn Yellow?

My son got a sunburn over the weekend and only the skin on his face has turned yellow? Is this jaundice? Do need to seek treatment? We applied aloe Vera a few times yesterday, he has a sunburn on the upper part of his torso as well but that is just the standard red. Only his face has turned yellow. What should we do?

It is not jaundice.
The color change will improve with time. Nothing to worry seroiusly about. My opinion is to use a sunblock cream to reduce the effects next time.
