A dream about becoming disfigured or with someone’s face deformed can be interpreted differently depending on who the person in the dream is. It typically represents self loathing, the loss of self identity, or a feeling that you are being controlled by someone else and being stripped of your power. The dream may also have a more literal meaning where you may have been in an accident and your face was scratched up.
To disfigure is an extension of malice for someone with emotional scarring about their physical appearance or themselves internally as a person because they hate themselves so much or has been emotionally scarred by others.
In dreams for instance, you might dream about someone who has hurt you. Your focus is on what that person does. In dreams, the thing in your dream may mean something that relates to you or something you have endured, as if that one feature will all of a sudden transform and be completely new by filling out the rest of your memories.
In this type of dream, it’s easy to experience distortion in your memory because there are gaps present from a lifetime worth of actions and things put together.
