Tattoo removal aftercare: I had tattoo removal and large blisters showed.

Macklemor3
I got sent to the medical doctor, he immediately popped them and cleaned it, then dressed it up. Question will this affect the removal? reasons not to pop the blisters is to protect the wound from infection. he popped it in a sterile environment and dressed it up.. also i read to let the area have as much open air as possible, but i was told by the doctor to let the dressing stay and it would heal much faster. I am seriously at loss now.
