I was rendering a scene and this happened. a blood red contusion suddenly appeared. I cancelled the render and checked my original scene. Yea it could be an artifact, but that size location and color? I can't explain this.

Could it be the hair? Sometimes I have artifacts if a hair's skull cap is interacting with the skin. Maybe try upping the smoothing on the hair and see if that fixes it. You can also try hiding the hair in the scene and then rendering to see if it's indeed the hair causing it or something else.
I get those from the hair from time to time. In certain lights. No biggee. You can easily fix it in photoshop, or change lights. Probably the rim doing it. Sometimes certain lights trigger that...Especially bright ones.
yeah, kid renders creep me out also, LOL
Are you using DAZ Studio 4.11.x by chance?
I am doing a render that is using DS 4.11.x and it's using the Wet Body & Hair Shader product but I noticed that both eyes both have something looking like wounds in the sclera, as well as one temple & one ear have what look like scabs! So I shifted all the models in the scene about so that the character is at location (0, 0, 0) and the "wound" looking render problems are still there, having not changed a bit.
I have decided I will erase the problem areas with PSE 9 postwork as best as I can muster when the render is done.
LOL...you're bad ;)

May have something to do with BackScattering:

One thing you can do is try turning the scalp off. That will fix it. Ideally, the scalp is a back up for the hair, but the hair shouldn't really need it. You should be able to safely turn off the scalp and that will eliminate the red splotches because that is the scalp causing that when the light hits it. Render without the scalp and see if you like how it looks.
looks like some kinda writing maybe she's some sort of clone or synth created by the Institute to infiltrate daz world
Wednesday Addams is my kinda child! Love her so much!
...I understand.
Actually have A Shadowrun RPG character based off her. One of her character Qualities is "sadistic".
That's just silly. Obviously its the Mark of the Beast. But at this resolution you can't make it out.
As stated above I'd guess its a combination of the scalp and probably that really bright rim light. Try changing the position of the light slightly.
it was just the hair cap peaking through the render only. Reduced forehead depth it went away
Oh, I thought it was the extreme lighting on the hair that was the problem, didn't notice the artifact.
