How long before spotty red rash disappears after bikini wax?

Have just given myself a bikini wax ready for hols this weekend. Have never home waxed before and am pleased with the results. The only problem is, I've got a nasty red rash where I've waxed. I used to have salon waxes before children and have had this before but can't remember how long it lasts. Do you reckon it'll be gone by Friday evening? Any tips would be gratefully received. I'm applying an aloe Vera based after-wax soother by the way. Thanks.

2-3 days should go down and by 4th day gone. Make sure you don't expose to the sun for 24hrs after wax.

Have you tried dabbing sudacrem on the worst bits? it's brilliant for spots and rashes

I have aloe vera gel, but I find tea tree works better

I've got some savlon and some stuff from Nads with aloe Vera. Will keep at it. Looks a bit grim today.
