Dermatologist 's  Response
hi,
thank you for asking on HCM.
as per your history, you have got burn due to hot curling iron.
- since the skin has already peeled off, no need to worry much.
-- it will take around a week for new skin to grow.
-- by that time, you may apply aloe vera gel over the burnt area twice a day.
-- you may also apply mometa cream once a day for a week.
-- you may take tab levocetrizine once a day for itching and tab ibuprofen for pain.
-- be caraeful next time, while curling your hair.
wishing you healthy skin.
thank you
