Branding is not one of the more popular body modifications, as there just aren't that many people skilled enough to do a proper brand. Plus, not that many people have really heard of them or are willing to get them, especially in comparison to tattoos.
Branding is a form of scarification where a heated material, usually a metal, is applied to the skin. The burn is generally pretty serious and eventually becomes a noticeable scar. It can be an area of thick, raised skin that can be just slightly darker than skin color, or it may be much darker once healed. The amount of scarring that you actually get from a brand will depend on your body and its ability to heal.
If you want a brand, you want to make sure that you do the research and find something that is qualified because serious injury can result. You don't want to just get a piece of hot iron and brand yourself. You want to make sure that you find an experienced practitioner.
Here are a few pictures of different brands.
