A Good-Looking Scar: Leaving My Mark on My Patient Care
Abstract

He was otherwise a healthy young man, barely 19 years old, presenting with a 4 x 1 cm, complex, gaping laceration through his right eyebrow. The handle of a concrete power drill had spun out of control and pistol-whipped his face. Proudly, he told me this head injury represented extra hours he had spent working in construction for his soon-to-be firstborn. The patient’s clothes were encrusted with dirt from hard labour, hanging loosely on his light frame.
