That really depends upon the severity of the wound. If it is healing nicely, you can stop applying hydrogen peroxide. If it is not healing nicely, you should consult a doctor, who may prescribe an antibiotic or other medical remedies (a sufficiently serious wound could even require surgery).

Will hydrogen peroxide burn your face?

Pure hydrogen peroxide certainly can cause chemical burns if it touches your skin. Hydrogen peroxide you buy from a drugstore is typically about 3% hydrogen peroxide and 97% water. As far as your skin is concerned, as long as you're not actually bathing in it it's not all that different from 100% water. You should be careful with even the dilute stuff around your eyes and mouth though; the mucous membranes are much more sensitive.

What can you for for a dog with a weeping neck?

A weeping wound is a sign of infection. Arrange to get the dog to a veterinarian for antibiotics. In the meantime you should attempt to wash out the wound with warm soapy water. Cut back long hair if a long haired breed. Do not try to use human medicine on the dog, they react differently and some may kill it faster than the infection. If the dog will allow, pour some Hydrogen Peroxide on the wound to help disinfect it, Note: it will bubble and turn white...This is a good sign. To properly help this animal you will need to speak to a Vet ASAP.

Hydrogen peroxide purchased from a store or science supply house has been stabilized so that expected loss due to spontaneous decomposition into oxygen and water is less than 3% per year.

Will hydrogen peroxide open the hair shaft to increase hair dyeing effectiveness?

First, hydrogen peroxide you buy at the store is damaging for your hair. Second ,it is not the same as peroxide developer in hair dyes. Third, opening the hair shaft will make your color fade faster. Plus it could change the color of the dye you are putting on. The question was true. Yes hydrogen peroxide opens the cuticle of the hair to allow the dye to penetrate it. Peroxide is an alkaline substance with a base of about 9. It opens the cuticle so that the colour can be deposited in the hair. If you didn't use peroxide your colour wouldn't last long.
