If you look at Act 2, Volume 2, Page 62, which is after the time-skip but before Paris, Bang doesn't have the scars and stitching around her neck.

They only appear after Bang fights the Geisterdamen in Paris. Did they cut off her head and did Gil need to sew it back on or something?
She doesn't have the scars when she shows up in Vol 19, pages 17-19 at the breakfast between Gil and Trelawney either though - the view isn't quite as good (strangely she appears to be wearing the same outfit in that scene and the current scene only it's somehow gotten significantly more revealing in the interim).

However, the scars have a distinct tendency to appear and disappear even from one panel to the next. For example in Vol 21 pg 63, when she stabs Tarvek, the scars are clearly present in the first two thirds of the strip only to spontaneously vanish in the final 2 panels despite no real change in distance and perspective with regard to Bang. With such a high level of inconsistency - the same thing has happened multiple times during her sparring session with Zeetha already - it's hard to make any sort of judgment.
