  So, like I couldn’t even technically create a Scar on the finger by continuously creating damage at the same place to destroy some details and create new ones?

    You could.

    Good luck with resetting your account credentials though.

    Also: Please for the love of god do not apply this logic to cornea scans.

      Eye biometrics scan the iris or the retina, not the cornea (lens)

        Youre right, I got my eyeball parts confused.

        You don’t even need to damage your fingers more than once. You just need to get the damage deep enough. Burning with thermal energy or chemicals would do it. You would NOT enjoy the process or the result.

    that wouldn’t create a new one just alter the old one. you would have to destroy / scar / whatever your fingerprints to a point where they can’t be distinguished from others
