Healing Process

It has been a few days since I treated my right arm. It's been slowly developing a few small scabs, and the skin is dry and flaky.

Because this is not technically the first treatment, I am starting to see positive results. There is some slight discoloration, and what used to be clean, bold lines is now starting to look like something that has seen one too many sun burns.

Though I am ready to be tattoo-free, I am not sure how I feel about dealing with a year's worth scabs, dry skin, and what I can only describe right now as 'scraps'.

I think that once I get knee-deep into this experiment, what used to look like a recognizable shape will eventually look more like random spots, freckles, or misshapen moles. Mmm. Misshapen moles!

Bring it on. I'd rather be seen as someone with an oddly-shaped mole, than someone who didn't think her cunning plan all the way through.
