Sometimes quite a bit of pressure needs to be applied to a branch to get the desired effect.  This can often cause unwanted unsightly wire scars which can take years for the tree to grow back to normality
A good tip to stop your wiring cutting into the branches and trunk is to wrap a small piece of foam around the desired branch before wiring.  It usually works best on a branch where a large amount of pressure is about to be applied.
