After a superficial second-degree burn, it is normal to see fresh pink skin once the old layer has peeled. This new skin is delicate and needs gentle care and strict sun protection to avoid dark marks.

Kindly book an online consultation for further evaluation and a tailored skin care routine
Health Tips
Do not scrub, peel, or use active ingredients (like retinol, vitamin C, or acids) until skin fully recovers. Healing may take weeks, and some pinkness is expected before it blends with your normal skin tone.

Use a very mild cleanser and a sunscreen with higher spf. But they are not sufficient for faster recovery or to get back the normal skin. Images help to provide better management.
