Therapeutic scarification is a widespread practice in Benin, particularly in southern Benin, where it is used to prevent and often even cure certain diseases. Despite its many therapeutic virtues, it is rejected by conventional medicine, which sees it as a fraud or even charlatanism. The seal of secrecy that underpins some of its practices does it a disservice. This raises the question of the value of therapeutic scarification in view of its popularity in southern Benin and the problems it entails. Unquestionably, this practice is perceived by some as irrational and dangerous, even though it is a form of rationality that can be valorized to strengthen therapeutic systems. Two therapeutic rationalities (modern and traditional) therefore theoretically appear to be mutually exclusive, and this is detrimental to the progress of medicine in general. Modern medicine isn't everywhere; it doesn't have the solution to everything, wherever it is. The same is true of traditional medicine. Be that as it may, the practice of traditional therapeutic scarification prevents and cures illnesses, but it poses problems of medical ethics and bioethics and needs to be reorganized, assisted, supervised and, why not, introduced into training schools, hospitals in general and those in Benin in particular
