<< Anyone know where I can find pictures of corset tattoos to get ideas ?
Most of my other tattoos are smaller so it was easier to control.
well with my "sleeve" the shedding was intense so i know what your taking about
what you can do is take the lotion or aquaphor and put it on as if you were going to but apply more pressure almost like rubbing but lighter to detach them and then gently pick them off
it worked for me and mine looks fine
i recommend doing it with lotion or aquaphor so its moistened
good luck!

Since you already have tattoos, you should know that’s part of the healing process. Just leave it alone.

Don’t you just love that leperous look? Nothing you can do. Wear long sleeves to cover it up is the only way to hide it.

if cutting it off doesnt work, :p
just leave it, keep up the moisturizing, it will go over time, after the colourful inky peely bits are off, your normal skin will also probably flake (white) this is also completely normal!
