Hi I used the toothpaste method on 3 zits I had before picture and that worked for 2 of them but the third left my skin bleeding harshly. What can I do to fix the burn left in the pic?

Tooth paste no longer had the ingredients to take away acne, Now for your burn you should use Neosporin so it doesn't scar and help heal fast.

And the reason your skin is burned its from the chloride in the tooth paste..Zinc is the ingredients that is no longer in the tooth paste it was taking out a couple of years ago.You can also use cortisone and put a band aid over it.

U should apply aloe Vera. It's used for burns and it will improve the redness. Aloe is very natural and extremely cheap.
