Small scar on my face from a childhood accident, will it matter?

    I have a 3 cm scar on my cheek, not dramatic but visible. I keep reading about grooming standards and now I am worried. Does anyone know how airlines treat scars?

    Scars are not tattoos, nobody chose them. US and European carriers do not care at all. Gulf and Asian carriers look at overall presentation, and a small scar with neat grooming is a non issue. I flew with a colleague with a much bigger scar for years. Stop worrying about it and prepare the group exercise.

    Korean carriers are strict on grooming but scars are fine. Makeup can soften it if you want, nobody requires it.
