How To Get Rid Off The Pimple Mark?
Hi doctor.... I am an indian lady,27 yrs age and have burnt my left cheek with dettol while treating a pimple. There is a small circle that appears like a wound and around it is big burnt mark which is very dark in color. I am treating it with tea tree oil and turmeric. Please advice what should I do to heal it fast and if lavender oil is good for it as said over the internet. Will the marks go away and how much time will it take. Please help me.... Thanks alot for your help... Jyoti

Hi,
Due to the application of Dettol directly, there is the development of irritant contact dermatitis. Do not worry, it may go away in a few days to a few weeks. Apply antibiotic cream like Fucidin cream. Take lemon juice daily. Do not rub soap on face.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
