The stunt leaves behind an [[Frostbite|ice burn]] that increases in severity the longer the chemical reaction on the skin continues. In this ice burn, the [[ice crystal]]s that form have the potential to burn and scar the skin permanently. [[Blister|Blistering]] at the site of injury is common in more severe cases.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Sachs |first1=Christoph |last2=Lehnhardt |first2=Marcus |last3=Daigeler |first3=Adrian |last4=Goertz |first4=Ole |year=2015 |title=The Triaging and Treatment of Cold-Induced Injuries |journal=Deutsches Ärzteblatt International |volume=112 |issue=44 |pages=741–747 |doi=10.3238/arztebl.2015.0741 |pmid=26575137|pmc=4650908 }}</ref> The freezing of tissue between the [[Dermis|dermal]] and [[Epidermis|epidermal]] levels of the skin leads to a disruption in blood circulation, initially causing frost nip.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Long III |first1=William B. |last2=Edlich |first2=Richard |last3=Winters |first3=Kathryne L. |last4=Britt |first4=L.
