Scarlet Rowe, age 11, from Irvine in North Ayrshire, was treated for burns to her face and eyelid after an incident in May.
Her mother Gina said: “We didn’t realise what had happened at first, it just looked like slime on her face. It was only after a few minutes we realised it had been heated and was burning her skin.
“The swelling was so bad that we weren’t sure what the outcome would be.
“Thankfully, no graft was required but it is so close to her eye that this could have been a lot worse.”
Meanwhile eight-year-old Joseph Erskine, from Clackmannanshire, needed weeks of treatment and a skin graft after a toy burst across his chest and hand in May.
His mother Stephanie Ewing said her son used a towel to wipe off the burning gel, removing part of the skin in the process.
