Another difference that AFAIK hasn't been suggested yet is that Harry

the girl who cursed off her nose are still growing, which might make 
all the
difference.
Mad-Eye, OTOH, was fully grown when he lost his parts, so possibly 
they
couldn't re-attach them.

Or he lost them due to spells that leave magic residue in the tissues

been able to remove Harry's scar.  I think severe curse scars/wounds 
cannot be magically healed for whatever reason.
 
And I reply:

Before I reply I just want to say hi, I'm new here and this is my 
first time posting.  Now with that out of the way:

Maybe it's just me, but I've always gotten the impression that Moody 
is the type that would wear his battle scars either as a reminder or 
out of pride.  Even if he could regrow his leg or repair all his 
scars and wounds, I don't know that he would want to, so it may not 
be helpful to use him as an example of what injuries can or cannot be 
repaired.

But I agree with jazmyn that scars and wounds from powerful curses 
probably can't be healed magically.
