I just got a hot wax done on my face for the first time & it left burn marks. i have a big day coming up in 4 days and i dont know how to treat it.

Need more than 4 day: Will take longer than 4 days to heal. Cool water will reduce pain. Frequent use of a cream for dry skin will feel good and reduce peeling. If you have dark skin, you may have color changes for a long time and choose to use makeup over it.
