Wound staunched without scars (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

unscathed

'without scars' is the definition.

'wound staunched' is the wordplay.
'wound' indicates an anagram (wound can mean twisted or turned around).
'staunched' is an anagram of 'UNSCATHED'.

(Other definitions for unscathed that I've seen before include "Without suffering any injury, not harmed" , "Unharmed and intact" , "Not injured" , "Unharmed, unhurt" , "scot free" .)
