Not everybody has perfect skin, and your sims shouldn’t either. One way to rectify this is through scars CC & skin mods to make them more realistic and unique.

Scars CC

Every person reading this sentence has scars. I’ve got so many I can’t even count them all! So why wouldn’t our Sims have them as well? They live such rich, interesting lives and with all the shenanigans they can get into, it’s no surprise that they’d have a few scars to show for it!

Scars CC That Will Stick With Your Sims

This list will feature a variety of over 40 scar types, for faces and bodies, with varying levels of intensity. Due to the somewhat graphic nature of certain scars CC, reader discretion is recommended.

Note: Some of these scars CC will have options for Infants; you may need the CASUnlocks Mod by Crilender which opens up locked CAS categories for sims of all ages and occult status.


Roses, Acne Skin Detail

Roses, Acne Skin Detail

For most of us, acne is a part of life once we hit puberty. Some people are unfortunate enough to have it pretty severely, and it can leave permanent scarring on their skin. Having acne scars can be a source of self-consciousness for many but luckily, once we escape the hell of puberty it’s something that a lot of people stop caring about. And this sim just goes to show you, you can still be beautiful even with acne scars.

Cleft Lip Scar

Cleft Lip Scar

Cleft lip is a common condition that people are born with, and the surgery to fix it is usually performed within 8-12 weeks of birth. Many folks don’t show any proof they ever had cleft lip as they grow, but sometimes there’s a scar. If your sim is one of these people, here’s some scar CC for them.

As the title would suggest, these facial scars are pretty gnarly. This CC is for a sim who very recently got their injuries, and however it happened must have been intense!

Jamie’s Back Scars

Jamie's Back Scars

This scarring CC was made based on a character from the television show Outlander. While the origin of these scars was particularly brutal, you can adapt them to your needs. One idea: a sim fell from their horse but got caught and dragged along the ground on their back.

Chest Scars

Chest Scars

Simmer Red Ear Cat took the scars that came with Get Famous and repurposed them for use on your sim’s chest. Despite reusing EA textures they got incredibly creative with the sizing and placement of these scars, giving us things like animal scratches, stab wounds, clumsiness injuries, or whatever else you can think of using them for!

Heart Surgery Scar

Heart Surgery Scar

A simple piece of CC that gives sims a scar from having heart surgery. There’s a fresh stitched version along with a healed scar. Creator JellyPaws also made a version for Infants, though it seems that there currently isn’t one for Toddlers and Children. The scar is eventually planned to be added to a larger mod so maybe we’ll see the missing life stages then?

Click here to download!

Automatic Burn Scars

Automatic Burn Scars

Although this scar mod celebrates something pretty scary, we love the ingenuity behind it. With this mod installed, sims who catch fire have a chance to develop severe burns on their body along with losing their hair, and the scars will fade over time (3-12 days) as the sim heals from the injury.

This mod hasn’t been updated in a while but based on comments it’s still working.

Self-Harm Scars For Arms and Legs

Self Harm Scars For Arms and Legs

Self-harming isn’t a great practice, but it’s not something a person should be ashamed of having scars for. These scars will add a strong dose of realism to your game but if the notion of self-harm is too heavy for you, it also makes a good wound set for limb-related injuries such as a sim getting thrashed by leaves while roaming the jungles of Selvadorada.

With this list of scars CC, your Sims can tell a story themselves of the things they’ve lived through by way of the marks on their skin. Do you have any scars that you got in funky ways?

I've been playing The Sims since the first game launched way back in 2000 and have been using CC for over 20 years. As a creative person with an interest in design, The Sims games have always been a great outlet for me whether I'm creating a cool sim, trying a new build style, or dabbling in CC making. The Sims really is a wonderful medium for all sorts of creative outlets and I'm happy to share my enthusiasm with other like-minded players!
