hii.....u are right in diagnosing it as a first degree burn. most of the first degree burns heal without any scarring. all u need to do is protect it from sun and avoid any unnecessary treatments.just apply calamine lotion twice daily till the redness goes away. follow up in case u see any other symptom.
