At the end of each Kambô treatment, the burn marks are dressed with a natural medicinal tree sap called Sangre de Drago. Also known as Dragon’s Blood, this liquid forms a protective bandage over the tiny burn marks when dried; helping to close wounds, stop infection, accelerate healing, and reduce scarring.

The burn marks will fade in time, but depending on your skin type and colour, you may have small circular visible scars. These Kambô markings are often seen as a badge of honour, but for those who are concerned, Kambô can be applied to a suitable body position to reduce visibility.
