Still itchy
I'm about four weeks past treatment #4 and the itching is a bit crazy. I take an antihistamine when it gets really bad but I'm having surgery tomorrow so can't take anything tonight. I'm trying to focus my energy and attention elsewhere.
2 weeks post treatment #4
Here is a pic of my tatt about two weeks after treatment number 4. The shiney is just moisturiser.
The scab has fallen off and the itching has started. Man, the itching! From head to toes I get itchy all over and it lasts about three weeks. I guess it is a reaction to the ink being processed out of my body. I take antihistamines to help but it brings the intensity down from a ten to about a 7. Still major itchiness.
I know it's really important to not scratch the healing tattoo so while I let myself scratch the rest of me I take care to only massage in moisturiser or tap my ankle lightly.

Warning: this is pretty gross.
So, here are some pics of the blisters I got after my 3rd treatment. I'm putting these up so if anyone else gets such bad blistering they know they are not alone. If you do - call your treating doctor and take good care of it. If taken care of well blisters like this don't necessarily mean you will scar or that you will have to stop the removal process.

Dr David Syed
Dr Syed has been very informative, reassuring and approachable throughout my treatment so far. I highly recommend him.
