So you start the game and Shepherd has these awesome looking scars… sadly as I'm playing more and more Paragon, they're healing. I understand that playing more Renegade makes them worse, but is there a way I keep playing how I want to play (largely Paragon) and still keep some of the scarring? I'm playing the Windows version.
Perhaps I can edit a game file, or apply a mod or something? Is this possible?

No it is not possible to keep your scars the legitimate way. There is a way to remove them with the medibay upgrade but this sadly doesn't have the option to prevent them from going away.
However you could edit your savegame and increase your renegade score and I believe you will keep your scars or make them worse depending on how much renegade you add, but that wouldn't be a solution for you, based on what you've said.
It is supposedly possible to mod the coalesced.ini file to have the scars stay visible even as a paragon player. More info on that halfway down the forums here: http://social.bioware.com/forum/topic/105/index/1593065
