This large electrocautery brand is freshly done in this photo, by Shawn O’Hare at Fillmore Tattoo and Piercing in Fillmore, CA. Visually I love the placement, but depending on the way she scars it might be hard to get it to heal evenly… (Note for the not-sharp-eyed: check out the microdermals too!).

scars are always much prettier before they´re healed.

Oh man, crossing the joint seems to me to be unwise. I’m not the biggest fan of branding and scarring as it is, but the practical implications of crossing over the acromioclavicular joint are significant. There’s lots of mobility in multiple planes and it’s going to tend to rip and scar and contract in unpredictable ways. That and looking again, it extends up onto the neck pretty far too. Scars crossing joints are generally bad because of the mobility issues involved making them much harder to predict and likely to keloid.
I’d think that one would want their branding to scar evenly and doing it this way reduces the odds of an even appearance significantly.

I agree with you mod doctor, but on top of the healing issues stemming from the desired aesthetic results, there is also an issue of mobility after healing. Since it might keloid over those joints it will make mobility in those areas a bitch and may even make mobility impossible and very uncomfortable. It looks great fresh though and I hope it heals well.

It does look awesome and I’m sure it will look even better healed, at first thought I was only thinking of asthetics and with a bra strap ontop of the actuall brand it might not scar as well in those areas but after reading moddoctors post I’m thinking there might be more significant problems aside from asthetics, I hope not though just thinking about the last large keloid removal posted on here I’de hate to see another one.

Maybe its the angle but I don’t think it looks very symmetrical or even.

I love it. It is going to be a bitch to heal, as mentioned many times, but that adds to the allure and beauty of the modification.

Holy wow, that’s my hometown! I moved away 5 years ago with my job, but while I was there i don’t remember it being very open-minded. I’m very glad the shop is open, and I wish them well. Definitely stopping there on my next trip home!

owww. it goes right over where her neck bends. if it keloids really big then she won’t be able to move properly! still, from an aesthetic point of view i really like how it looks.

also, it might just be my eyes messing with me, but it looks like she has previous scarification work underneath her clavicles. that might explain the unevenness of the infinity sign, as it covers up the older scars.
