📋 About This Mod
I Blended the face scars to be more of the face skin color so in some scenes its 90% less visible in other scenes it just looks like a really well healed scar with no redness to it. Also did the same thing to the body scars that are on his chest back and arms being about 80% less visible with version 2. The face scars are no longer red and about 70% less visible in actually gameplay but in the beginning bath scene its maybe 45% reduced and not red.
I will be uploading the same face textures to replace the tattoo face models so no tattoos will be visible at all if you want to remove tattoos. This mod will conflict with the Younger Geralt face mod on here and any other mod that modifies Geralt's face textures.
Update Sep 15 uploaded a version2 of the body scars for the chest, arms, stomach and back reduced the scars appearance by 80% compared to v1. The back is the biggest improvement in reduced scars. Still updating the face textures to v2 and will include the shaving scenes as well all in one folder.
The eyes in the pictures are NOT part of this mod. I only modified the face and body textures in this mod. If you want the blue eyes they are from my other mod, http://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/524 and they are the greyblue colored ones.
A cosmetic mod for The Witcher 3 that blends Geralt's face and body scars to match his skin tone, making them up to 90% less visible in some scenes and appearing as well-healed scars without redness. Ideal for players who prefer a cleaner look for Geralt.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Place the mod files directly into your Witcher 3 'Mods' folder; if it doesn't exist, create it in the game's root directory.
- If you're using other visual mods, load order can affect how scars appear—test with other mods disabled first.
- Since the mod is from 2015, check if you're playing the Game of the Year Edition, as file paths may differ.
