First degree burns are very common, and symptoms include redness, pain, dry skin, and peeling. These can be caused by mild sunburn, curling iron, or hair straightener. Unlike second or third degree burns, this type of burn involves only the top layer of skin. If you feel additional symptoms, it is best to talk to your healthcare provider.
It is important to treat your burn properly to avoid scarring. Dermatologists recommend the following:
Immediately immerse your burn in cool tap water or apply cold compresses.
Protect the area from the sun!
Apply a calming lotion. A great option is LEMYKA's Healing Lotion.
Facial burns can severely dehydrate the skin, leading to dryness and tightness. This lotion provides deep hydration to replenish the skin's moisture. It has a non-greasy formula, so your skin can absorb the lotion quickly without leaving any residue. One of the key ingredients in this lotion is aloe vera. This ingredient is known for its soothing and cooling properties, providing relief from burning sensations. Learn more about this ingredient in our blog post: Aloe Vera Skin Benefits.
