Body modification extreme

I kept busy as I can to avoid having to write this article .....

I'm not a big fan of scarification, even so I will try to keep it as neutral as I can ....

Can be substantially divide the process of scarification in 2:

1) Branding (scarification through burns, heat and other sources, the definition of the brand world is literally

-An identification mark burned on livestock with a hot iron.

-Mark with a hot iron, disgrace, condemned

-Mark owned by an animal

-Identification of Product

There are basically 2 types of branding, "strike" (this is when the artist takes a piece of metal and repeatedly burning the skin over a drawing) and "cauterization" (this is when the artist uses a cautery pen to burn the image the person's own skin).

2) Cut (scarification end with a thin blade, and this process can add color with tattoo ink, sometimes can include the removal of patches).

Ok, now you know the difference between branding and cutting .......

Let me share a little 'more with you:

If you decide to choose the cut of the procedure will be more or less like this:

- Anesthetic is first applied to the skin

- The design is drawn with ink on the desired area

- The artist then traces the outline of the design with a scalpel on the skin, does not have to worry at this point, will be a cut shallow.

- After the line out the artist will apply more anesthetic and wrap the skin for a few minutes (not because he thinks you're a wimp), but it helps the shunting of blood, and make it easier to work.

- Depending on the size and the amount of work necessary to the process can take something like 4 hours of cutting, application of anesthetic, packing and waiting until the decrease in blood volume.

If your choice is branding, the process is more or less like cattle marking (ever seen on TV and thought, "poor animal", ok so we're talking the same language here, however the procedure is more or less in this so:

- Choose the image you want to (try to keep in mind that after burning the human tissue tends to expand a bit ', and as the name says, will be dealt a third degree burn on the skin).

- Try to stick with simple designs, you should know that the results vary a bit ', and no artist can predict with certainty how thick or thin the scar will be, depends on each of us the healing process. The simpler design is easier to predict the results you get.

- Try to choose an apartment are of your body, preferably away from the bones and vital organs

- The appearance of the scar also depends on the length of the blade will be in contact with the skin, the artist must not apply pressure to it, to obtain a scar heavier than the artist to maintain the blade in contact with the skin to along.

No, you want an image very elaborate, of course, no problem, I actually agree with you, once you're doing something at this level is not well ...... but those designs must be very well panned on paper and after well formed on the metal blade, the shapes must be between 1 to 3 centimeters in length, so that the iron can retain the heat long enough to make a clean and strikes uniform. It 'a good idea to have the artist to place the blades on the skin to see if the entire surface of the blade is in contact with the skin in a uniform manner.

Before you begin the process you should ask the artist to test the blades, just to be sure that everything is ok, and you have no problems with the metal distortion, caused by an uneven distribution of heat through the metal or metal to be thin or small. The artist has to test the blades on a piece of metal to find the perfect balance between heat and pressure, then you will not need to run tests on you! It's not really the best option to use your body as a piece of evidence.

The artist must have at least one assistant to hold the propane torch.

One last thing before I get started with your scarification:

The area must be cleaned more will get done .... not only the area but the surroundings as well (I know that sounds like an obvious statement, remember at this moment you are beautiful and comfortable reading this article, but if you decide to go in the scarification process is under a certain pressure and forgotten little things can cause a significant impact after)

The interesting part of the process of scarification is that the healing process is a huge part of how the scar will take care. No one can guarantee 100% as will the scar after healing, but you should really groped to avoid becoming infected.

How? It is not so simple ....

First make sure you've done in a clean and professional, I do not think that because scarification was used by primitive tribes and cults, the fact that you can get from your friends, sisters, which is a famous dominatrix .... look for places that have experience, have a portfolio with work previously done and also try to find an artist who will explain the whole process in a way that you feel really comfortable about what you are doing.

If your choice was the scarification of cut:

The curing process will include tons of cleaning, ie after about 6 hours you will have to remove the bandage and wash the area with cold water and soap, rinse and dry it gently. You will need to do 2 or 3 times a day, for the first 4 to 6 weeks, depending on the type of scarification and the place you have done, it usually takes between 6 to 8 weeks for the primary healing and a few months for you to get the true result.

There is also a thing called scarification of agitation, is used to enhance the appearance of your scar, if you want to have a larger amount of scar tissue on it or not. The nice part of this process is that the method used to do it is doing something that your mother probably told you not to do your entire life, picking the scabs that form ... The other way is a little 'more, how can I, intense, you should wipe the area with a soft brush dipped in hydrogen peroxide or rubbing alcohol ........ and if you're really up to it, you can do both things before choosing the scab and after brushing, fine, just keep in mind that you must do it gently ......... to be rough or over harvesting can damage the look of the final ..... among other things, just the commotion after a few days that I did not rush things, please ........ and do not hesitate to call the artist if you have any questions, I'm sure he used to think you're an idiot if you do not know exactly what to do and how.

You can choose the brand:

It will also have a large amount of after care of making, such as:
At the study even the artist should put anti-bacterial cream on it, cover with a sterile swab and have it held in place by surgical tape.
Probably you will have to apply anti-bacterial cream for 3 days, after which you should clean the place about 3 times a day with hydrogen peroxide, you can break the mark will cover 3 days after you did.

In the case of branding, you should keep in mind what your mother always said, do not pick the scabs!! And after every shower wipe it with hydrogen peroxide. Brands take an average of 3 to 12 weeks to heal (you remember, branding is a 3-degree burn on the skin), so please do not forget to be polite and very careful when cleaning.

Just a little note here:

I tried to be as neutral as possible when writing this article ....... I'm sorry if I could .... I never received a scarification so I'm giving you a view of a person who searched for a few weeks and I was wondering about this topic ... If you have comments to add please do ...
