No they aren't tribal marks but it is common in Nigeria,and some African countries to give kids tribal marks on their bodies (but not that many!). His were a result from him having the Lupus infection.
ps: kirtsy, i doubt seal is into scarification *rolls eyes*

Seal has distinctive scars under his eyes, left by a skin ailment called discoid lupus (which makes the immune system hyperactive and attacks normal tissue) when he was young.

Definitely due to skin infection called lupus, which he suffered from when he was a boy. Read an article where he was interviewed, that's what he said :-)

well i do know something, he has and will never tell how he got them, and there is no point in asking that question because you will never get the correct answer, because if he wont never tell then no one knows, i have a inclin they where tribal marks to, but im not sure, i also have a inclin that someone has burnt his face either with a strong blowtorch or maybe a candle or if you look closly it could be acid that has burnt his face, he looks like he came from a hard backround, like grew up in the wrong part of town where black men where to be punished just for there color so im guessing they took it out on him and made him pay, either way his dating heidi klum now i believe so she must find something about him attractive, so it werent all bad, but honestly i dont think anyone knows the answer accept the people who gave him the scars, and most probably heidi klum but im betting she dont even know, his protecting the people who done it from ever getting arrested, good luck finding the answer,

No its not, its actually because he has a certain type of skin condition. I forgot what it was called tho.
