I had a motorcyle burn (a nice round, brownish circle--from the exhaust pipe--) It finally faded aaaawaaaay and is no more.
Do you plate folks 'ping' when going through airport security?
I know I'm making light of serious injuries--I wouldn't wish your situations on anybody. I'm sure you always worry about protecting those areas from further injury.
I don't ping I believe it is made out of a Kevlar type material. My x-rays look rather nasty though, as well as the 5 inch scar down my wrist.
Nope, my plate wasn't metal. I had no problems with the airport. Oh, when I had it taken out, they asked me if I wanted to keep it! Ewwww...I told them that was okay, I didn't need it.
