Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of burn marks on the face after dettol application which is due to post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Need not to worry. First of all wash your face with mild soap and cold water twice a day and apply Fluticasone Propionate ointment on that. Also drink 5-6 glasses of water daily and add fresh fruits and vegetables to your diet. Apply apply aloe vera gel and apply azelaic acid containing cream twice a day as this is safe and natural extract of cereals. If symptoms keeps on persisting visit dermatologist once and get it examined and go for proper antibiotics course .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
