Trauma

intentional, controlled, and localized physical stress or injury inflicted on the body’s tissues or structures during various cosmetic procedures or treatments. This physical stress can be caused by surgical incisions, injections, laser treatments, or other nonsurgical interventions aimed at modifying or enhancing the body’s appearance. The purpose of this deliberate physical stress is to initiate a healing response within the body [with specific goals in mind], prompting processes such as tissue remodeling, collagen production, or localized fat reduction, ultimately contributing to the desired cosmetic outcome or body modification sought by the individual undergoing the procedure + the individual eliciting the physical stress on the canvas.
