Surgical masks are generally worn for personal protection to help reduce the wearer's exposure to bodily fluids, blood, etc.

Some body modification artists choose to wear them during a modification procedure for hygienic reasons and to protect them from potential biohazard exposure as well.

However, not all surgical masks are created equal, and some serve different purposes depending on what kind of protection one may require.
