New fashion tattoo

There’s a new fashion tattoo, it’s called Branding, this art is made with a high frequency surgery device. With this device you can sign relatively fine and with detail scar lines in the skin. Or using the classical branding with a carefully bent metal drawings. These are heated up to approx. 1200 ° and are pressed in a before certain pattern for 1 or 2 seconds on the skin. The uppermost skin layers are burned, and originate scars which can be considered tattoo patterns.
This art requires extreme precision and experience with a little bit too much pressure or one second long burning, can serious injure for real.There are records that people are doing branding in Germany since 1998. But it just started to be known around the world a few years ago.
If you decide to chose this method, remember that this hurts like hell, people that have already made the regular tattoo and this new method said that is ten time painful. But we can’t discus tastes, Both are known as definitive method of art. If you are tired of your regular tattoo, you can always do a laser surgery and erase the ink traces. But with branding if you want to remove them, you need to do a integral skin transplant by doing a plastic surgery.
