Scraping works by stretching the outer layer of the “onion” and breaking it into several pieces. The instruments use shear force to pull the top facial layer across the bottom facial layer. This pulling motion breaks up the scar tissue between the layers. The broken scar tissue triggers healing mechanisms to migrate into the tissue and properly repair the muscles and soft tissue.
