Please never use undiluted dettol or savlon over face, as they can cause burns over face. To heal the skin, use very bland, hypoallergenic moisturiser over face twice daily. You should wash your face with gentle cleanser that does not contain any glycolic, salicylic or lactic acid. Do not peel your skin or touch the area. Avoid direct sunlight. Apply a broad spectrum sunscreen with spf 30 or above during daytime.
