Help. i was flipping a pancake and 3 drops of hot oil splashed my face. it's red not too much but i don't want a scar. what do i do?

Normal wound care: At this point (hours after injury) topical antibiotic ointment or cream is all that is needed. No one can promise no scar from any injury, but keeping out of sunlight as much as possible while it heals will allow the collagen to lay down normally with less scar formation.
