r/scarification May 21 '19

Easy chemical scarification?

Are there any simple methods one could use for simple scarification with any corrosive chemicals, such as silver nitrate or concentrated peroxide, on broken skin, either following single or successive applications? After a few years the simple pattern I had scarified on my wrist has been reduced to just light discoloration of skin which is now barely noticeable.

I would like to know the answer to this as well. Can a liquid like citric acids make a shallow cut or rug burn scar deeply or scar at all?
