Detailed Answer:
Hello. Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.
I have read your query.
I understand your concern.

Burning sensation post waxing specially on face is a very commonly encountered complaint by patients.
Skin of face being very soft and sensitive develops Irritant or Allergic contact dermatitis post procedures.
I will advise you to upload your photograph of the affected area so that I can see to it and help you to my best.

Kindly get back to me with uploaded photograph.
Stay healthy.
