Tags: burn, facial
I had burned my face about 3 weeks ago. i was out camping with some friends and a can of unopened pork and beans that was siting by a fire exploded in my face. i ended up with mild second degree burns on about 70% of my face and severe second degree burns on about 5%. the rest of my was was ok. i just have acouple of questions.
1. where the mild second degree burn were there is the discoloration from the new skin ( becaus i tan ) i was wondering how long it would stay discolored. and 2. i go tanning and i have gont since the accident. i was wondering how long i should wait befor i go tanning again, if i should cover my face when i go or if i can just go.


This discussion is related to Will my burn heal?.
