We were told he wrapped himself around a heat source ( a bulb in fact ) as a youngster - it's kind of why I bang on about guards so much. :oops:
Their response to pain or injury tends to be coiling into a tighter ball - not such a good idea of the bulb is in the middle. :(
The burns were so deep the scales are malformed and pure white in places.

Re: ugly bps?
A healthy, robust, normal ball python is never ugly to me. However a thin snake with stuck shed, like the ones often found in pet stores, are a bit of an eyesore (with the ability to become swans of course). I've seen some ugly morphs too...
