Something that's been on my mind of late. How much "evidence" (in
the form of scarring) is left after cybernetic implant surgery?
Personally I would assume that plastic surgery has advance enough to
easily cover "small" scars and such, but is it available from street
docs or street clinics? And wouldn't major implants (such as wired
reflexes) leave some scars even after plastic surgery? Would it be
possible to go to a specialized plastic surgeon to completely cover
all implant scarring? And how would one measure how notable scarring
might be? Would 10 - [essence cost](modified by additional plastic
surgery) be too high or too low of a target number to notice
scarring? This would mean that cybereyes/cyberears would leave
practically no scars while wired reflexes 3 would leave something that
could be noticed with a reasonable inspection. Of course this does
not take into account a persons noticing the actual cyber in some
cases.
