Help How long does it take to get a second degree burn with salt and ice?

[SaltyIceBoy]

I was wondering how long I'd need to hold ice over my salted skin for a second degree burn to form. I don't want to go over, but aim to go a minute below that amount of time for maximum scarring without an ER visit. I've been doing 5 minutes as of late, but they aren't as potent as I'd like them. Any help is appreciated.

probably not best to do if you cant tell how long im sorry

I think it's a bit unpredictable how cold the salt/ice mix really is. It can be anything from 0 to -20°C. Have you considered dry ice? It's -79°C as this temp is stable you could estimate a time for how long it needs to get a 2nd degree burn at this temperature.

However I don't recommend trying this. It's your own choice.

yeah don't do that, that's seems like unnecessary pain.
