I agree with Domina M and NYCRick. That is over the top for me.

My only experience with "branding" was when in mid session with a long time domina of mine stopped to relieve herself. She asked me "do you want to watch?" I said yes and was ordered to crawl to the bathroom. A day or two after the session, as was our practice, I called and she discussed what worked and didn't in session. I mentioned I wanted her to "brand" me with her golden essence on my chest and grain in our next session. She said I was not ready for that yet.

Months later in mid session she surprised me and took me to the bathroom and I was "branded" with her GS. It was highly erotic. I had to clean her, quickly shower and return to her bedroom for more training.
