Some time back I posted Kitten‘s gorgeous large-scale scarification of cherry blossoms done by Dave Gillstrap. It’s now looking well healed, as you can see it peeking out from under her clothes — for for the top half.

beautiful. would be great if it would stay red.
i love it! beautiful.
That really has turned out beautifully…I’m certainly envious! Gorgeous!
I absolutely love the result! the color is just perfect!
that’s FUCKING BEAUTIFUL.
Wow. She scarred perfectly. I hope I scar that well.
Oh wow! They turned out really well!
I wish my body scarred so well. Tried everything from lemon juice through to hydrogen peroxide but still they end up flat and pale. Harumph
wow, they’re really pretty! healed really good as well
Great colors. This is beautiful.
i am not the biggest scarification fan but that is amazing !!!
That’s lovely :)
i’d be interested to know wether these were cut, or strike branded (what it looks like to me)
they certainly look good, as per no.15 i dislike the majority of scarification peices, but this looks like she was born with them.
Wow, these are just gorgeous.
Wow, that turned out very nice. Love it!
thats amazing – i wish they all came out so good
beautiful.
Excellent work++
That looks awesome!
This is really good, probably the first scarification (I’ve seen) that I really like.
Thank you everyone for all the kind words!
Wow, that DOES look awesome. Just the right amount of contrast!
wow those are really beautiful.
just what I would hope for from a scarification piece.
Wow, thats beautiful! Great work.
You know, I don’t like most scarifications.. It’s just not something that I usually find visually appetizing. But this one, from the time it was fresh to now, I have always liked. I love the simplicity and the size. It’s lovely. Congrats!
I’m impressed!
“for for the top half”
these scars are gorgeous, they came out so evenly!
those look really nice. scarifications often look sloppy once they are healed, but this is so crisp and i love the darker color.
Wow, that is beautiful. The shape and curves are sexy as hell! Hell, the scars are nice too. ;)
Wow.. look amazing! Did you do anything to them to reach this colour?
#15: I had my scars cut, I think I’m a bit too much of a wimp to handle branding.
#34: I spent some time laying in the sun, but other than that, I just lucked out.
To everyone commenting on it being even/crisp: The artist makes all the difference. That and I was told not to pick at them or irritate them with things. If the artist knows what they’re doing, the scar typically holds some presence. I’m very lucky to have Dave working on me. He’s an amazing scar artist.
I love it when we get to see fresh pictures and then healed pictures…this turned out really nice. I’m not usually a big fan of most scarifications but this is amazing.
I agree with the “leave it alone” theory of scar healing bigtime… Picking at scars almost always results in uneven healing, even if it does give bigger keloids.
Fantastic results. I don’t know if I could leave a healing scar alone – I’d itch it into a mess.
Amazing! Those lines are so crisp!
i love you kitten!
omg :O breath taking
Probably one of the best scarification pieces I’ve ever seen. Absolutely beautiful.
Those are so precise and even! couldn’t have turned out better!!!
Beautiful. I love the deep color that the scar turned out.
