Answer:
Scarification is done either by cutting repeatedly with a scalpel, using a cauterizing tool, or by "strike branding," which is much like cattle branding. After cleaning the area and stenciling on the design, the artist begins cutting or burning the skin until reaching the right depth and width.
Aftercare for scarification
Following the procedure the wound will be wrapped in plastic wrap (i.e. cling film) . This should be worn for approximately three hours. It should then be removed and the area washed with antibacterial wash. Repeat this procedure every 4-6 hours for the initial three weeks .
