Self-injury scars convey so much information that may not even apply to the person with the scars. E.g., BPD, a history of abuse, fragility, depression, suicidal ideation and problems regulating emotions
If I learned my psychiatrist was doing this I would quit seeing her because it would give me the impression that she is overwhelmed with life. I have a lot of trouble heeding advice from therapists who don't have it together. It is like a suicidal person telling another suicidal person to reach out for help because they are worth it and then that same person refuses to seek assistance.
