A member asked:
I was curling my bangs and i burnt my forehand. two days later it scabbed and now it's peeling. how do i prevent from this scab leaving a scar?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No scar: Most likely it will not scar but will be a little darker that the skin around it. Talk to your doctor and he will give you guidance.
