As Shanim, what method did you use to import your figure into Carrara?  TransPoser or Native?  I imported just now using Native and then set SSS the same for each skin shaders (head, neck, scalp, forearms, legs, hands, feet, lips, and the like).  No seams when rendered.  This was a Poser 6 figure that Carrara 5 needed the Runtime folder path for to import it in native mode.

Anyway... the resulting figure imported into Carrara is a figure whose body is made up of "one complete mesh" with different skin shaders pointing at different UV maps on it.  This is why SSS works for jrabbit's figure because his figure is one volumetric object which SSS loves.  I'm rendering a Victoria 3 figure now on my sloowwww P3.  Her eyes take forever to render.  I'll post pics.
