Interviews were analyzed according to open coding, axial coding and selective coding method.
The analysis was conducted based on the following concepts extracted experienced by victims as considerable beauty, the traditional context, substance abuse and mental disorders caused by field conditions; and consequences compromised helplessness and retardation, readjustment and social deprivation categories. Also, burns and loss of beauty, sex and education as mediator conditions in this process were extracted.
The study showed that acid attack means physical and psychic injuries for victims.
