Right, but scars from a tummy tuck or a boob lift are pretty major. Really tough decision there for most people.

I can't agree more. I work in a hospital and see them all the time. But for most people the scars will diminish over time, like a year or so. And if you take care of the incisions as they heal you can really help them look better. The abdominoplasty scar is most easily hidden by your clothing. I find the mastopexy (lift or reduction) scars to appear more disfiguring but the end result usually makes people really happy.

You just have to create a great backstory to explain the scars. Escaping terrorist tortures, pygmy cannibals, or some heroic exploit.

I got in a fight with an industrial sized can-opener.

It was a Chinese fountain. You could tell by the angle of the scars.
