To my mind, it evokes images of C-section scars, laugh lines and worry lines, the dent on the ring finger of my left hand... Marks visible on the surface that tell a story. That I carry those marks, or see them carried by others indicates survival to me. Lots of things, people especially, are more valuable / important / interesting with experience.
Some would dismiss or discard an object or a person who shows such signs. I'm not one of them, I value such experience.
