peroxide and neosporin are probly your problem
for real that peroxide is just drying it out..who told you to do that???im not an artist so i dont know the proper way to heal the tat after two weeks but my suggestion for a future reference..is aquaphor and lubriderm...a little dap of aquaphor for 3- 5 days after the tat and the lubriderm for i dunno 2 weeks after 2x a day...and you should be good..oh and remember to use the hottest water you can stand when washing your tat which should be everytime you go to apply something to it..your tat is basically an open would so treat it like one
but to answer your question my opinion stop the peroxide, wash with the hottest water and apply a good lotion (lubriderm) to it..its already scabbing bad so you cant go back and fix that ...just dont pick the scabs let them heal natural you will most likely have to go for a touch up because of she shitty heal
and like i said im not an artist i could be completly wrong with how to fix your problem its just my suggestion...and if i am wrong how do you correct it for my future reference?
