Talk:Disfigurement
Appearance
Previously, this article redirected to body modification. I felt it should discuss disfigurement caused by medical conditions. - Montréalais 16:54, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)

I think it should stay where it is, because the definition is different, I think it could be moved only if it were still very much a main heading. If one was looking fofr medical disfigurment one would type medical disfigurment, not mutilation.

Disfigurement commonly refers to a congenital or birth defect, whereas mutilation (as distinguished from mutation) refers to the result of a violent action.
