    Something similar happened to me before. You might have a small bit of ink loss when it heals up, but it shouldn't be anything too drastic.

    The worst part, the scabby bit, may need to be touched up when it's completely healed but it shouldn't be too bad if you take care of the burns properly. Looks very sore!!

    Just leave it alone and it will be fine. If it blisters or scabs DO NOT bust them or pick the scab. Let it heal and treat it as you would a new tattoo.
