That's an interesting method, but I would have assumed that the "skin"
that covers a blistered area would simply fall off eventually as part
of the healing process. It's dead skin, right? I assumed you had to
implant any magnets under healthy skin. Seems I saw something on BME.
An article on subdermal magnets?

While I've got to admire your creativity in this whole ordeal or
process, I'd recommend you see your family doctor or a dermatologist.
Have the magnet removed. Let your skin heal.
