{{examples}}

* [[Career Killer]] [[Leon]] returns to his apartment and is seen patching himself up in the shower, showing that he had been injured carrying out one of his hits.

* Chigurh does this in ''[[No Country for Old Men]]'', as if he wasn't [[Badass]] enough. He [[We Need a Distraction|torches a car so he can steal the antibiotics he needs from a chemist shop unobserved]]. Moss has to patch himself up as well, but his attempt is considerably more amateur.

* The antagonist in ''[[Pan's Labyrinth]]'' sews his [[Glasgow Grin|forcefully extended smile]] shut on camera.

* Played with in ''[[Silent Running]]'' when the protagonist reprograms a robot to perform surgery on his badly injured leg.
