Similar effects can be achieved by using biopsy punches to remove small circular patches of skin. What is packing? If deep cuts are made on an angle, the resulting wound can be packed with “relatively inert” clay and other substances. While this type of scarification is largely unheard of in the West, it was quite common in Africa until recently. During healing, massive scars envelop or force out the clay — this is one of the harshest methods of scarring, but is by far the most effective if huge keloids are sought. That said, the results are not generally even so be prepared for something that nearly everyone will assume was a horrible, horrible accident. Recutting and repacking can be used to fine-tune the results. Please note that NO reputable practitioners will offer advanced techniques such as this to the general public (nor s
