THE ISEKAI DOCTOR Any sufficiently advanced medical science is indistinguishable from magic. - Ch. 36.2

I think there's one chapter (not far from here) when they thought using Regen Magic to heal the wound right away, but Amami thought it might complicate things, so the idea was dropped.

Unless I'm misreading, I think that's what @ThatNaiGuy is referring to -- that they could use Parla's lower-stakes procedure to check how healing magic interacts with a fresh operation. And if all goes well, then they could even consider using it on the King's hand.

Yeah, that was the king's arm, they were concerned it would fully restore the issue causing his pain. I'd imagine they would have had similar concerns with the dragon, due to it being a cancer removal, but then the humans that could have offered were the shithead ones anyways.

Fia, don't do anything stupid please. I really like your character.

It'd be a good idea, but they would need consent from the patient for it first - and since it's a pure cosmetic surgery on the face the odds of her being willing to risk it isn't super high. If they have to redo it all because it caused another bad scar the next surgery will be larger and the result more noticeable.
Asking someone to let them run this experiment on something like a leg or other place that won't be seen much is probably a better idea.

What I want to know on the other hand, is that since healing magic seems pretty tied to the magician's understanding of the internals of what they're healing, if this could be a learning experience for her to be able to heal with less scarring. A mental image of suturing wounds up before healing the original wound could maybe already have made it a lot smaller the first time.
So many interesting experiments to run...

On the latter, I recall something similar in How the Realist Rebuilt the Kingdom. Light mages could heal some injuries but not pathogens. One woman from a race with microscopic vision that sees the pathogens and medical knowledge found out she could because of her greater knowledge.

The sun curse thing feels like it was resolved too easily. And I don't know if something was lost in translation but the vampire king seemed pretty quick to avoid sharing any information at all when MC just threw out a test solution.

I feel like they should have applied regeneration magic to the facial scar surgery once it was nice and sutured. It doesn't super matter, but it would have been a good test of how the magic interacts with surgical sites with minor results and maybe opened up to using it on the king's arm too.

Well, the whole thing with the facial scar was caused by regeneration magic in the first place, right? Like sure, with sutures in place it may not cause as visible of results as before, but if it's an operation to remove the cosmetic damage that regeneration magic did in the first place, using the surgery to fix it as an experiment for that same regeneration magic seems like a bit of poor form. He'll likely have plenty of times in the future to experiment with it in less conspicuous surgeries later on.
