Surface disfigurement (4)

I believe the answer is:

scar

(Other definitions for scar that I've seen before include "Old wound - bare cliff" , "Limestone cliff or outcrop" , "Mark of old injury" , "Effect of unpleasant experience" , "One left after having wound" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
