Thought I would update with a picture, its been over 3 weeks and all the scabbing has come off, you can see that there is some blown out ink especially on the left side of the dragon.
Not sure what they can do but I will go and see them after my hols next week

I have just read up about blow out and majority say the tattooist has gone to deep causing it to blow out.

Well that is not good as my tattoist said apply bepanthlen small amounts still 4-5 times day still which I have been, when you say blown out is that the colour coming beyond the outline? Really concerned now, will it not get to what it looked like after it was done?
So should I stop putting cream on it then?
Thanks
