Burned my face with apple cider vinegar: I used apple cider vinegar on my face for 2 hours. It burned the skin and it turned dark brown. In 4-5 days the burned skin (scab) came off. But now there is a pinkish-whitish skin on my face. Will it scar permanently? Please help me so I could remove it. It has been a week since the scab came off. I'm a female, Indian skin. (The size of the scar is pea sized) I'm applying aloe vera gel. Should I continue applying? Also, should I use honey on the pinkish-white skin? Does it help from scarring? How much time will it take to come back to my normal skin colour? Will it scar? I'm worried Pls help so I could remove it without any scars Should I use mederma?
