Looking at the pictures side by side, it’s already really lightened up. I got the tattoo done on 3/18/17 around 4PM CST, so I count 3/19 as my first real day which means it’s technically 17 days old, and it’s still peeling/healing, so by the time it’s at a month or two, I’m sure it’ll look even better. At this point, I’m actually happy where it is.
I do have some “onion skin” though on areas where the old skin has fallen off, and the new skin is there. Basically kinda wrinkly shiny skin.
