Does The Cauterization Skin Burn Need Medication?

I had cauterization done on the skin near my eye to remove a wart. However, i noticed that there was a brown scar beside the area where the doctor cauterized and remove the wart. I think she used too much cauterization and thus burned the skin. There was also some bruising which was due to anesthesia according to her. Will the burnt skin heal on its own?

Hi,

Yes it can heal by its own, but if you use creams with hyaluronic ac, regeneration process is faster.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
