And if so, how did you get them?
I'll start...
I've got a sovereign scar right cheek, teethmarks in my nose, and a screwdriver hole half inch from my left eye. (lucky not to be wearing a patch right now!) The things us boys get up to eh?
What permanent marks have you got that remind you of your life so far everytime you look in the mirror?

I was pretty much covered from my neck to my hairline with acne when I was about 13 years old. Not just little pimples, but cystic acne which left me scarred for the rest of my life.
Then when I was about 18 yrs old, I had to have a mole removed from my right jaw bone. They thought it was malignant melanoma, so he resected a huge chunk out. Turns out it was not malignant, so I have a 1 inch old surgical scar in my r cheek near my jaw line.
When I was 34 years old, I was punched in the face by a guy with a 6 pak of beer or something really hard and now I have a 2/3 inch scar to the right of my nose under my eye.
It all sounds traumatic, but the way I always tried to look at it was that my heart is the purest of anyone I have ever met and the acne scars were so bad, you cannot hardly see the rest of the stuff.
I am female, I am good and I deserved better in life, but you cant always get what you want. I also have great teeth and a fantastic mane of brown curly hair and a knock out body.

I have a tiny scar under my eye from taking a round house kick from a lrge man full force in the face, it split my cheek!(it was in a class not brawling in the street), I also have an almost invisible one on the bridge of my nose where I hit a tree on a rope swing.
A bike accident left me with a nice circular scar on my forehead, it doesn't appear until I am really hot or been exercising, and then it looks like the world seen from space, a bit weird that one.
I am covered in scars all over really, but got away with not having too many on my face, thankfully.
Knees look like a patchwork quilt though!!

I have a scar on my face too. Honesty is the best policy - small white lies lead to the habit of lying. Stitches is true statement - if they ask "what from?" (only because humans are curious) - tell the truth. My new pretty big scar on my chin is from mohs surgery for skin cancer - I went for the first time to the dermatologist thinking my face was broken out due to the stress of my move to a new city, and it was skin cancer. So, my honesty could help someone else have the courage to go in and catch skin cancer early - and, since I pray every morning to be of maximum service to God and my fellow travelers here, that is my goal. So, stay honest and you may help others.

My left and right brows have thick scars from fights I've been in, also a dandy on my chin. Cut myself a few times shaving--minor scars though. I have a scar from abdominal surgery. Strangely enough I still have scars on my wrists from a mean feline my mother owned about 25 years ago when I was very young. My hands are no end of scars. I also have a large slashing scar on my right foot from being cut by a katana sword. Oh and a disk grinder I was one using kicked back at me and tore into my leg just above the knee. Tha's a beauty there. I'm definitely not unscarred.

Got stabbed in the thigh made it a bast*ard to sit down and nearly had my right index finger cut of with a carving knife lucky I had a stick in it at the time or I might have lost a couple of fingers. Four inch scar running from hair line to my eye from smoking a bit of weed before swimming in a river, dived in and hit a rock. A dog bit off my left ear so it looks a bit chewed. Got a whopper under my chin, when over the handle bars of bike.

Bloody hell, a screwdriver! That my friend is a scar to be proud of. I have an inch long scar on my chin from when I stacked it ice skating and cushioned the fall with my face. Not half as cool as yours though. Oh, and a chunk out of my ear from a fiesty jack russell.

Not me personally, but my cousin has a scar down the whole left side of his face. He got into a fight at a house party and the dude broke a full 40oz on his face. That **** was nasty as hell; when it was all said and done I think it took like 90 stitches.

yep got one under an eyebrow, Years ago when we were still in our teens two of my younger brothers were fighting, i was in an armchair reading a newspaper when suddenly this stonking bronze bust (which had pride of place on the mantlepiece)burst through the paper and bounced off my brow, split and spurted blood immediately. My parents were grateful it hadnt smashed through the window and my brothers nearly fainted at the sight of all that blood and very sorry. when I recovered from the shock 5 mins later I was absolutely raging but they ran out of the house and stayed out till i'd gone to bed - the cowards lol
