Hi! Possibly you may have applied it too much. Slight peeling is desirable but if it's too much, revisit the Dr who prescribed it

that is because you used too much quantity of the area,. stop applying for a few days. you can send photos and do an online consult so I can tell how to subside the reaction if you wish.
