Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic

Hot wax cause skin burn which can manifest as redness and may leave behind pigmentation.

If I was the treating doctor I would have asked you to use a topical moderately potent topical steroid cream e.g fluticasone propionate cream, twice daily for a few days to hasten the resolution.
