Stars with Scars: Celebrities Share the Stories Behind Their Visible Scars
What are the stories behind the visible scars of famous celebrities? Discover how stars like Michael K. Williams, Tina Fey, and Harrison Ford embraced their scars and how you can improve the appearance of your own scars with expert treatment.
Scars and the Healing Process
Time may heal all wounds, but for scars, it’s the opposite. Whenever the skin is injured, the body’s natural healing response goes into overdrive, working hard to produce extra collagen, which “fills in” and repairs the injured tissue. Scars can develop due to any number of reasons, but they affect almost everyone at some point in our lives.
In fact, you may be surprised to learn how many so-called “perfect” celebrities have scars, though this isn’t too surprising when you stop to consider that scars and beauty aren’t mutually exclusive. Thanks to exciting innovations in the field of Dermatology, however, scar management is better than it’s ever been before.
Embracing Scars: Celebrities Who Wear Their Marks Proudly
There are some celebrities who not only live with their scars but embrace them. Below, we’ll explore the stories behind the scars of six famous individuals who have chosen to celebrate their unique features.
Michael K. Williams
Michael K. Williams of “The Wire” (as Omar Little) and “Boardwalk Empire” (as Chalky White) fame earned his scar the old-fashioned way: by getting slashed across the face with a razor in a bar fight on his 25th birthday. The scar catapulted him from being a struggling dancer to being cast as iconic characters in movies and television shows.
Tina Fey
Brilliant comedian and writer Tina Fey was attacked by a stranger when she just was five years old, playing in the front yard of her suburban home. The little girl thought the person had drawn on her cheek … but the “drawing” was done with a blade. Though she was traumatized at the time, she confidently moved on with her life. She says she usually doesn’t even think about the scar until a cameraman points it out.
Padma Lakshmi
Celebrity cook, author, and model Padma Lakshmi of “Celebrity Chef” was in a car accident at age 14 that left her with a 7-inch scar on her forearm. She says the scar reminds her that she’s a survivor with an interesting past. She’s so untroubled by the scar that she happily posed nude for a photo shoot in “Allure” magazine.
Scars as Character: Celebrities Who Embraced Their Marks
Some celebrities have even incorporated their scars into their character or backstory, turning their unique features into an asset rather than a liability.
Harrison Ford
Harrison Ford — the original Han Solo in “Star Wars” and also the original Indiana Jones — was given a great backstory for his craggy scar in the movie “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.” Indiana got the scar while he was practicing with his whip. The real story is more mundane: young Harrison started driving before buckling up, was fumbling around for his seatbelt, and rammed into a telephone pole.
Catherine Zeta-Jones
Actress Catherine Zeta-Jones of “Feud” (as Olivia De Havilland) and “The Mask of Zorro” (as Elana) has a scar on her neck that she won’t let make-up artists cover. Why not? That scar saved her life. It marks the spot where doctors performed a tracheotomy on her when she was a child.
Danny Trejo
In the case of character actor Danny Trejo (“Machete”), his entire face is riddled with scars, from acne pock marks to dents left by other boxers’ fists. Once he made it onto a film set, those scars became his bread and butter. His IMDB page sports 538 appearances in films and movies, with about 20 projects for 2018 alone.

14 celebrities who have proudly showed off their scars
1
Selena Gomez
View full post on Instagram
2017 was a big year for Selena Gomez’s health, as she underwent the kidney transplant she needed following damage sustained from lupus. Selena’s best friend Francia Raisa bravely donated her kidney to Selena, the operation from which left both women with a scar.
In March 2018, Selena proudly showed hers off in a swimsuit while relaxing on holiday in Australia, and since then the singer and actress has become more confident about her body and its so-called ‘imperfections’. In a poignant Instagram post from September 2020, where she poses proudly in a gorgeous powder blue swimsuit, Selena wrote: “When I got my kidney transplant, I remember it being very difficult at first showing my scar. I didn’t want it to be in photos, so I wore things that would cover it up. Now, more than ever, I feel confident in who I am and what I went through…and I’m proud of that.” YES to that.

Princess Eugenie
View full post on Instagram
30-year-old Princess Eugenie was diagnosed with scoliosis – a medical condition in which a person’s spine has a sideways curve – when she was just 12. An operation to correct it left the Princess with a long spine leading from the nape of her neck downwards, and in recent years she’s not been shy about showing it off (see below).
But in celebration of International Scoliosis Awareness Day, she shared a clear photograph of her scar on Instagram as a means of encouraging anyone out there who’s gone through something similar to share theirs, too. “Let’s be proud of our scars!” she wrote.

Everyone was eager to see what dress Princess Eugenie chose to wear to her October 2018 wedding to Jack Brooksbank, and she didn’t disappoint. Making a bold statement, the Queen’s granddaughter used her big day to make an even bigger statement about body confidence.
Eugenie’s Peter Pilotto dress perfectly complements the scar running down the top of her back. Prior to her wedding, Eugenie told This Morning’s Eamon Holmes and Ruth Langsford the gown was “a lovely way to honour the people who looked after me and a way of standing up for young people who also go through this.”

Molly-Mae Hague
Molly-Mae Hague revealed recently on Instagram that she underwent an operation to remove a concerning mole on her leg over fears about skin cancer. The surgery has left behind a scar on the 21-year-old Love Island star’s calf.
“Some of you may remember me talking about the mole that was here a few weeks ago on my story,” wrote Molly-Mae. “Not going to go into too much detail until I have my results back next week but this just goes to show how important getting different doctors’ opinions is,” she added. Molly-Mae’s post is a vital reminder that health comes first, always.

Kate Middleton

When people first noticed the three-inch scar just in from her hairline a decade ago, their assumption was that Kate Middleton had hair extensions. Of course, that was completely false, and Kensington Palace released a statement saying: “The scar is related to a childhood operation.” We don’t have much more information than that about the scar on the left-hand side of the Duchess’ head, but she’s worn her hair in styles where it’s partially visible since.

Amy Schumer

Amy Schumer is about as open as they get, especially where body image is concerned. After giving birth via c-section to her first child, Gene, last May, the comedian hasn’t shied away from sharing the realities of a post-birth body – and that includes her scar. In one Instagram picture, posted just a couple of months after giving birth, Amy can be seen lifting her top up to reveal her caesarean-section scar. “I’m really sorry if I offended anyone with my hospital underwear,” she captioned the photo. “Except I’m just kidding.”
This is one woman who just does not care what anyone thinks of her body, and it’s liberating.

Malin Andersson
Since losing her baby daughter at just four weeks old in January 2019, former Love Islander Malin Andersson has gone through a very difficult time. But while the loss of her baby was truly heartbreaking, it also brought her a new appreciation for her body – something she had struggled with in the past. With that, comes a scar left from her caesarean section, which she now reflects on as being something she treasures.
“I had an emergency C section so now I’m living with a scar, and a pouch of fat above it. It’s going to be there for the rest of my life, but I look at it and I think it’s so beautiful because I carried this baby,” Malin told Cosmopolitan UK last year. “I look at myself in the mirror and I’m actually more pleased with myself than I’ve ever been in my life.”

Prince William

Kate Middleton isn’t the only royal to have a scar on her head; her husband, Prince William also has one – and he legit calls it his “Harry Potter scar”. The Prince was accidentally hit with a golf club when he was 13, leading to the permanent mark on the left side of his forehead.
“I call it [my Harry Potter scar] because it glows sometimes and some people notice it — other times they don’t notice it at all,” he said in a 2009 interview.

Lena Dunham

Lena Dunham has famously documented her experience with endometriosis, and the resulting impact it’s had on her body. One of those repercussions is a series of scars from various operations she’s had to undergo, but it’s not left her feeling uncomfortable with the way she looks. In 2016, Lena posted a picture of her in a bikini in the Target changing rooms, and captioned it: “When the Target swimsuit does a bitch right, endo scars & all”.

Perrie Edwards

Little Mix’s Perrie Edwards has a scar on her abdomen as a result of an operation she had when she was little, to correct her oesophagus. Having spoken openly before about the scar previously being her biggest body hang up – “I don’t want to show it,” the singer once told Now magazine – Perrie proved in a later Instagram that she’s now comfortable in her own skin, by showing off the scar in a plunging top.

Gabby Allen

It’s a good job Love Island 2017 star Gabby Allen isn’t self-conscious about the scar running down the centre of her back, or she’d have had trouble feeling confident enough to wear a bikini for the duration of the show. But Gabby knows the scar – which she has following a childhood scoliosis operation, just like Princess Eugenie – is nothing to be embarrassed about.
Showing it off on Instagram during a trip to Mykonos this summer, Gabby used the image to promote a scoliosis charity initiative. In a previous social media post about her scar, the fitness trainer-turned reality star wrote: “Be proud of your bodies. Accept them for what they are. Forgive them for what they’re not. Understand them when they need a rest. Support them. Believe in them! Love them!”

Tina Fey

You might never have noticed the scar Tina Fey has on the left-hand side of her face, just under her mouth, but the story behind how it came about is shocking. When the comedy writer and actress was just 5 years old, she was playing out the front of her house when a stranger approached her and – out of nowhere – cut her with a knife. “She just thought somebody marked her with a pen,” Tina’s husband, Jeff Richmond, said. Tina says she was mostly able to ignore the scar until she began doing on-screen work, and it made her feel self-conscious. “I’m kind of able to forget about it, until I was on-camera.” Many of Tina’s scenes are reportedly filmed from the right-hand side.
15
Olivia Buckland

Love Island 2016 star Olivia Buckland’s scar is a recent one, having got it when she had a lump removed earlier this year. The lump in question, which was located near the reality star’s left armpit, had been bothering Olivia for four years until she finally built up the courage to have it checked out ahead of her wedding. “It turned out to be a lipoma,” Olivia wrote on her Instagram stories. “Had it for a good four years and finally plucked up the courage before the wedding to have it removed. It was cut out and was about 3×3 inches!” Olivia has said her scar is healing well.

The Big Bang Theory actress Kaley Cuoco regularly shows off the scar on her foot while walking the red carpet. 32-year-old Kaley sustained the surgical scar after a horse riding accident led to her crushing the bottom of her leg back in 2010. The incident was so severe, she could have lost her leg.
5 stars who made scars a part of their image
The scars of these stars have long been perceived by the public not as “flaws”, but as unconditional advantages. We tell you who from the celebrity turned the consequences of injuries into a part of the image.

Jason Momoa
The star of Game of Thrones and Aquaman fell in love with the audience for his brutal appearance. The scars on the body and face, which he has more than enough, give a special charm to the image of the actor. The most famous of them is above the left eye. A daring mark that literally cuts the actor’s eyebrow was obtained as a result of a fight in one of the Hollywood bars. A rather tipsy client of the establishment, angry about something, inflicted several serious blows to the actor in the face with a broken bottle. In order to sew up the wound, the doctors put more than a hundred stitches on Jason. There was a risk that he would even go blind in one eye – but, fortunately, nothing happened.
MakSim (Marina Abrosimova)
ADVERTISING – CONTINUED BELOW
Singer MakSim, aka Marina Abrosimova, was never ashamed of her scar near her left eyebrow and did not try to hide it. The singer received this mark in early childhood, when at the age of 2 she crashed into the corner of the kitchen table and cut the bridge of her nose. The wound was quite serious, so the baby had to be urgently sent to the doctor, who put a few stitches on her. Having matured, Marina learned how to successfully mask the remaining traces with the help of make-up.
Seal
The singer and composer Seal has a rather unusual appearance. His entire face is covered with deep scars, which he received in childhood after suffering an autoimmune disease – systemic lupus erythematosus. These traces of the Force are not considered a disadvantage: in one of the interviews, the singer admitted that many years ago he had to accept his appearance as it is and close this topic.
Tina Kandelaki
Popular Russian TV presenter Tina Kandelaki has a large tattoo on her left hand. The star stuffed herself with a symbol that looks like a hypnotic circle. In fact, this spiral symbolizes the magical sign of strength. Few people know about the history of this drawing: in 2006, Tina had a serious accident, after which she had burns on her arm and thigh. She covered the burn on her arm with this tattoo, and the burn on her thigh with the Chinese character for the word “mother.”
Joaquin Phoenix
Fans of Joaquin Phoenix have often wondered: where did the scar above their upper lip come from? Some sources claim that the actor underwent surgery to correct the “hare lip” in early childhood, others say that Joaquin was simply born with this mark, and all reports of surgical intervention are just fiction. The actor himself does not like to talk about his appearance, but it is quite obvious that the mark on his face did not become an obstacle for him to build a brilliant career in Hollywood.

Plastic surgery has come a long way. But not all public figures are in a hurry to permanently get rid of such a serious defect as a scar on the face or other noticeable part of the body. Many of them only slightly “decorate” them, hiding them under long bangs, scarves, jewelry, stubble or a fashionable beard. And others even flaunt it, believing that such signs on the face and body are given for a reason, and can tell a lot about its owner, his life experience and character.

And the crowd of fans will quickly thin out if it turns out that their object of worship and adoration is an ordinary person with his own shortcomings. However, as it turned out, not all stars are ready to hide them. For example, the American actor Jason Momoa, who was especially fond of the audience in the role of Khal Drogo in the cult TV series Game of Thrones, made a “highlight” out of his impressive scars. The brutal handsome man has more than enough scars. The most “epic” – on the left eyebrow. This bold mark has become a distinctive “chip” of the actor. Although the history of the scar is not so original. He earned it in a fight that once happened in one of the Hollywood cafes. More than 100 stitches at Momoa Hospital! He was even in danger of losing his sight. But, fortunately for the handsome “Aquaman”, everything worked out. The scars only added more masculinity and charm to his real and cinematic image.

As a child, the model underwent surgery, as a result of which she lost this part of the body that is familiar to everyone.

Once she was playing hide and seek with her sister Kendall, and when she began to climb over a high fence, she ran into a sharp metal bar that stuck out of her. The rod almost pierced Kylie’s leg through and through, but the scar left after this not very pleasant story does not bother the girl. She often shocks the audience with ultra-short mini and revealing outfits that reveal Kylie’s luxurious legs … with a noticeable scar.

According to a story often seen in the media, as a child, Sharon allegedly did not notice a taut clothesline when she ran across the yard of her house while playing. The rope dug into the girl’s neck, leaving a mark for life. However, there is another version: the star got a scar when she was riding a horse as a young girl. Her clothes were unsuccessfully tightened around her neck and damaged the skin on this delicate part of the body. Which story to believe?
