Hollywood Healing	comment	No matter how badly they were injured — be it from gunshot, blade, burning, acid, you name it — an action-adventure hero never ends up with permanent scars anywhere that is normally visible to the audience. (Although he may have one or two hidden under a shirt so he can take it off and reveal just how tough he really is.) You'd expect at least one missing tooth or broken nose in a lifetime of fighting crime. Yet Bruce Wayne's corporate headshots are perfect time and time again, and James Bond never shows up at an embassy dinner with two shiners and a wad of gauze over his nose, even if he's just been hit in the face by an iron bar. This gift for complete and utter regeneration of wounds no doubt contributes the hero's ability to get up and beat the villain to a paste after suffering a concussion, third-degree burns, and a compound fracture of both legs in the previous scene. (See Made of Iron, Heroic Second Wind.) The Big Bad may also be similarly indestructible on screen, but their badness can result in hideous scars or mechanical limbs if they were injured in previous encounters. Either way, the damage suffered is often shrugged off as Only a Flesh Wound. Between them, Made of Iron and Hollywood Healing cover the two extremes of the Action Hero — the Terminator-type that can walk unscathed through a bomb blast, and the hero who gets hurt badly but somehow always manages to come back and triumph in the end. Compare Bottled Heroic Resolve. Supertrope to Improbably Quick Coma Recovery. Also known as The Cinematographic Law of Heroic Injury. For video game examples, compare with Heal Thyself, Walk It Off, and Trauma Inn. Contrast Healing Factor and Healing Hands, two cases where fast, easy healing is justified better. See Scars are Forever for the most common aversion of this trope. Not to be confused with Worst Aid. Examples

Hollywood Healing / int_101bfcd7	comment	Subverted in the anime version of Sengoku Basara where Masamune obtains a gunshot wound that leaves him bedridden for two episodes and serves a major handicap during the final battle with Nobunaga. Played straight where Yukimura had bandages on his arm in a sling after his defeat by Masamune but it takes a punch from Takeda to provide instantaneous healing.

Hollywood Healing / int_1b386512	comment	Ranma Â½: It's a subtle Running Gag that no matter how badly beat-up the characters get, all they ever need to recover after regaining consciousness is a small first-aid kit that has some cotton wads, disinfectant, band-aids, and very little else. At one point, early in the series, Ranma was sent flying into a wall hard enough to leave a sizable crater; the foes claimed he had broken every bone in his body, and, indeed, his bones and joints kept popping and snapping audibly. However, he recovered from these injuries (even after being turned into a girl) only a few minutes later, and was still in perfect condition to punch through ice boulders, take Ryouga's kicks and suplexes, and have a skating rink's worth of ice collapse on top of him with no ill effects.

He does walk with a cane for a few eps after ditching his wheelchair, but still seems to have learned to walk again a bit fast. Perhaps a more mild form with Mac. It is possible to recover from aphasia over a couple of months, but it still moved somewhat quickly. Not so fast as to make it impossible to believe, especially with the six-month time cut, but a little bit. And, in real life, it can still re-surface when the person is angry or afraid... and Mac seemed fine the whole time he was worried about Christine in the crossover near the end of that season.

Hollywood Healing / int_227431b6	comment	The protagonists in Runaways appear to be pretty healthy considering that they are virtually the only crime fighters in LA to stop various supervillains while living in various underground bunkers which probably lacks resources to deal with serious medical emergencies. On the other hand, the series subverts this when Chase is shown with his arm in a sling an unspecified amount of time after having his arm pulled out of his socket by a Doombot and Klara Prast is shown to be rather black and blue from her husband's various abuses. There's also the fact that most of the hideouts were designated and stocked by their parents who were filthy rich and geniuses, so it's not too much of a stretch that they included some stuff to deal with serious injuries.

Hollywood Healing / int_369e7a11	comment	Rocky Balboa is one of the biggest examples of this trope, especially since in nearly every Rocky film there is some sort of major concern about his health and ability to continue fighting as a boxer.note In Rocky II it turns out that one of his eyes is damaged from the fight in the first film and he has trouble following movement on that side, to the point that his trainer Mickey initially thinks it's suicide for Rocky to try getting in the ring with Apollo again. In Rocky III Mickey comments that the beatings Rocky took in the first two movies should have killed him, and as a result Mickey has done everything in his power since to make sure Rocky didn't take on another top level fighter who could pose a serious danger to him. The plot of Rocky V revolves about how Rocky has sustained brain damage from his bout with Ivan Drago in Rocky IV and might well die if he ever gets in the ring again. Each time, these individual health concerns and the overall physical toll taken on him mysteriously vanish by the next movie.

Some patches are actually held in place by metal implants. Plus you know, he's missing his freaking left arm! The only odd thing is that his face stays suitably Bishōnen. Until Hang Fire, that is, where he does suffer from repeated punches to the face. He gets better, though. Vash's brother suffered severe injuries from being blasted by the Angel Arm cannon from Vash, injuries which he doesn't fully regenerate from until 23 years after the fact.

Claire mentions when she first meets him that when Jessica shot him point-blank in the head with a shotgun to break Kilgrave's control over him, that should've turned his brain into mush, but didn't because of Luke's durable skin. Furthermore, he recovered from that within a span of hours, not days like most people would. His quick recovery is thanks to the fact that the experiment that Luke was subject to in Seagate was meant to accelerate his healing, but due to Rackham's last-minute sabotage, ended up giving Luke his durable skin.

Hollywood Healing / int_43a9c333	comment	Spike from Cowboy Bebop was constantly suffering gunshot wounds or severe beatings that would have him wrapped up head-to-toe in gauze, but he'd be perfectly fine in the next episode. This might be realistic because there is no actual definition of time between episodes. With the exception of two-parters, Spike may have had more than enough time to heal. Still doesn't explain how his gunfighting or Kung-Fu abilities don't suffer for all the damage beyond his natural status as a badass. It is suggested, however, that the doctors can easily replace damaged body parts, such as when Spike suggested Jet get a normal arm instead of the metal one. We, of course, never see him doing anything to heal other than sleeping covered in bandages, so it very well may apply.

Hollywood Healing / int_502cbd09	comment	Luke Cage (2016): Misty's arm heals surprisingly fast from getting shot by Diamondback. She seems to have ditched the sling within a day or two of the shooting at best. In reality, she would've probably had to wear the sling for a couple of weeks before any doctor would allow her to remove it. Somewhat lampshaded when Inspector Ridley tells Misty that she really ought to be in the hospital lest she want to make her arm injury worse. Discussed in regards to Luke. Much is made over the fact that he's able to walk away without a scratch from things that would kill a normal person.

Turk Barrett's second appearance in Luke Cage appears to take place after the Season 2 finale of Daredevil (2015)note Daredevil Season 2 overlaps with Season 1 of Luke Cage where he nearly got his foot cut off by the Hand ninjas trying to get his tracking bracelet off. When Turk appears in "Soliloquy of Chaos", he doesn't even have so much as a limp when he's interacting with Zip and Diamondback, or later when Luke interrogates him for information on Diamondback's base. And the whole thing with the Hand happened fairly recently, as dialogue establishes that Claire came to Harlem not too long after the Hand attacked Metro-General.

Hollywood Healing / int_6138216a	comment	The Darkman movies have a particularly blatant example of this. The character Durant appears to have been killed in a helicopter explosion during the first movie. He returns in the second movie with a limp, but no scarring or disfigurement whatsoever. Durant's survival may have been a retcon, but it's still very jarring when you consider that the title character got the way he is also because of an explosion.

The most horrible and intentionally exaggerated example is from the episode "Fight Club". Their faces are badly battered, bruised, sewed; Mulder's jaw is even wired, and his arm is broken. They are a sorry sight indeed, and they've beaten up one another! Because of some half-sister doppelgÃ¤ngerish encounter. Or something. Fortunately, next episode they are fine.

Hollywood Healing / int_69d15cc0	comment	Marvel Cinematic Universe: Daredevil (2015): In "Cut Man", Claire gives Matt Murdock a needle chest decompression for the pneumothorax his three broken ribs gave him (after being lured by the Russians into a trap). He gets on pretty well with beating people up afterwards. He would actually need a lot more hospital treatment before he could go back to bruising baddies. After the injuries from his fight with Nobu plus the beatdown from Wilson Fisk, Matt definitely would need a lot of surgery and blood transfusions for all his wounds instead of stitches and the meditation that Stick had taught. Stick's meditation must be that magical. Early in Season 3, Wilson Fisk pays Jasper Evans to shank him as part of a gambit to manipulate the FBI into moving him to the Presidential Hotel. There's a few points in later episodes where Fisk clutches his hand to his chest in the approximate location of the stab wound, implying that he still feels some lingering pain from the wound. Luke Cage (2016): Misty's arm heals surprisingly fast from getting shot by Diamondback. She seems to have ditched the sling within a day or two of the shooting at best. In reality, she would've probably had to wear the sling for a couple of weeks before any doctor would allow her to remove it. Somewhat lampshaded when Inspector Ridley tells Misty that she really ought to be in the hospital lest she want to make her arm injury worse. Discussed in regards to Luke. Much is made over the fact that he's able to walk away without a scratch from things that would kill a normal person. Claire mentions when she first meets him that when Jessica shot him point-blank in the head with a shotgun to break Kilgrave's control over him, that should've turned his brain into mush, but didn't because of Luke's durable skin. Furthermore, he recovered from that within a span of hours, not days like most people would. His quick recovery is thanks to the fact that the experiment that Luke was subject to in Seagate was meant to accelerate his healing, but due to Rackham's last-minute sabotage, ended up giving Luke his durable skin. Turk Barrett's second appearance in Luke Cage appears to take place after the Season 2 finale of Daredevil (2015)note Daredevil Season 2 overlaps with Season 1 of Luke Cage where he nearly got his foot cut off by the Hand ninjas trying to get his tracking bracelet off. When Turk appears in "Soliloquy of Chaos", he doesn't even have so much as a limp when he's interacting with Zip and Diamondback, or later when Luke interrogates him for information on Diamondback's base. And the whole thing with the Hand happened fairly recently, as dialogue establishes that Claire came to Harlem not too long after the Hand attacked Metro-General.

Hollywood Healing / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons Surprisingly, played straight in the 4th edition. In order to avoid forcing one of the players to play the "Cleric" "with a blunt weapon", the designers decided to embrace this trope and give every player character the ability to spend "Healing Surges" at will when they have a five minute rest. This is one of the most controversial changes in the game. They can also do it once in the middle of a fight, plus the Leader classes (Warlords, Clerics, Bards, etc.) have powers that allow other people to use a healing surge. This absurdity is somewhat justified by the abstract nature of D&D's hit points. And to top it off, they have full Trauma Inn action going on, except that you don't even need an inn. One night's rest will restore you to full HP and full Healing Surges. Fifth Edition thankfully dials this back, but it still allows you to recover an amount of damage rolled on one or more of your hit dice during a short rest (which can only be done with the DM's approval at safe points). You can't recharge your hit dice until you get a long rest, but by then you'll probably have accomplished a goal and be healed already. In First Edition, losing HP was explained as a combination of fatigue and actual damage. Removing fatigue from a night's rest makes perfect sense. Damage ... not so much, but it was implied that it took approximately the same amount of actual damage to kill a 1 HP commoner and a 90 HP high-level fighter. The fighter just had more experience avoiding that damage ... until he was too worn out to do so anymore. And in First Edition, you didn't automatically heal to full from a night's rest anyway; some of the HP loss apparently represented minor sprains and bruises that took longer to heal.

When this is resolved, it's noted that the monks did such a good job that there aren't even scars or shaved patches, even though other characters put through the same procedures had scars. It might be because this was done by a team of monks practiced in these techniques, while the others were worked on by a lone one who was motivated by Greed.

It is quite possible to be at full health but not full limb health as some methods heal regular health but not limb health (e.g drinking water). Other things heal limb health but not overall health. Healing a limb with a stimpak restores some overall health, but mostly limb health.

Even though Shepard was basically dead (and we do see some small clips of Cerberus patching them up), Shepard walks away from the Lazarus Project with only some fairly minor facial scars. Subverted in that it is stressed repeatedly that this was an incredible undertaking of medical science that had never been done before, cost billions upon billions of credits, and took a full two years with some of the best minds in the galaxy working on it. It was revealed in DLC for the next game that they also made use of cloned tissue, including at least one full-grown clone which escaped. Healing is apparently also affected by morality.

Hollywood Healing / int_9e2f90f4	comment	All over the place in One Piece. Only scars significant to the story are kept. With everything that the Straw Hats by themselves have suffered, they should have some permanent, horribly swollen scars everywhere on their bodies. Some notable examples include: Zoro and Luffy being stabbed clear through their bodies several times over, not to mention caught in explosions quite a few times. Usopp being beaten with a 4 ton bat and dragged along the ground at 30 miles an hour. Nami being stabbed clear through the foot (and then walking right on it shortly afterwards). Sanji having his leg fractured by Vergo, and then having it never bother him again for the rest of the arc. And of course, all of the Straw Hats have been caught in explosions at various points that should have left them with burn scars. Yet, there are none. One of the most ridicolous examples even by the manga's standards is at the end of the Alabasta arc, where supporting character Pell flies up into the sky holding a bomb that can wipe out a city intending to sacrifice himself - taking the explosion point-blank in mid-air. Every character assumes he's dead after the fact - except he's not, as the end of the arc shows him recovering with no permanent wounds at all. Even as a Zoan fruit user with enhanced durability and some form of healing factor, the fact he wasn't incinerated into dust immediately is completely absurd.

Hollywood Healing / int_a32b6a64	comment	Josh on The West Wing has some impressive healing skills. He gets shot and the bullet damages his pulmonary artery, requiring extensive surgery. After surgery, he spends one two-part episode in the hospital and one at home and then goes back to work 100% even though he would have needed months to heal (the chest bone, for instance, would take at least three months). (In fairness, those three episodes span from May to November, so there is some recovery time, but probably not enough.) In one episode the surgeon general compliments him on how nice his scar looked while he was still under sedation from the surgery and in Season 7 the scar has completely vanished. Donna's surgical scar are also mysteriously absent in Season 7. She does spend several episodes in a wheelchair after an open femur fracture but once she's out of the wheelchair she walks around like normal with no need for physical therapy or any signs of pain.

She suffers no repercussions like septicemia, breathing problems, lungs flooded with blood, or at least a crippling pain that should keep her in bed for days until she recovers. And the cherry on the top, she survives the mother of Vulcanic eruptions completely unscathed, which took place just a few hours after she was wounded.

Hollywood Healing / int_ae3cad7b	comment	Peacemaker (2022): Vigilante is injured multiple times throughout the series, from relatively minor bruising to nearly getting his toe cut off to getting shot badly enough that his friends thought he was dead. Every time, he walks it off and is better an episode later at worst. Funnily enough, he's the only character that has this advantage. Peacemaker himself starts the series coming off serious physical therapy from his injuries in The Suicide Squad, Judomaster is out cold for multiple episodes due to a head injury, and Harcourt ends the series doing physical therapy for getting shot less than Vigilante. This has led to fans semi-jokingly suggesting that Vigilante has a minor Healing Factor, but is too stupid to notice.

Hollywood Healing / int_b30ae4db	comment	Game of Thrones: The early seasons mostly avert this. Even relatively minor injuries (by modern standards) are treated as severe, and if someone is injured they're likely going to stay injured for at least a few episodes if not permanently. However as the series goes on characters shrugging off wounds between episodes becomes more and more common. Jon Snow is just a little stiff after nearly dying of three arrow wounds in the previous episode (albeit a season finale). He also receives a nasty leg wound in "First of His Name" that disappears by the next episode and shrugs off a head vs. anvil confrontation in "The Watchers on the Wall" that should have shattered his skull. By the Seasons 6-7, all bets are off. Sandor Clegane heals multiple open fractures after falling from a cliff, which, mind you, rendered him unable to stand up or even kill himself, and being left to die in the middle of nowhere. Arya Stark recovers from multiple stab wounds to the gut, followed by a swim in a dirty river, within a few days at most. To top them all off, it takes Jorah Mormont a day to recover from having large sections of his skin flayed off after contracting a deadly disease that, judging by his external condition, should've already affected all his innards.

Screen Junkies did an Honest Action video about the injuries Harry and Marv sustain in the two films. Turns out it would take nine Harrys and fourteen Marvs to complete the two films. The five extra Marvs are from a series of bricks he takes to the head, thrown from several stories up, in the second movie. The third film is almost worse about this — one of the foreign spies suffers a lawnmower falling on his face, blades spinning, and another survives a stick of dynamite going off barely an arm's length away from him.

Hollywood Healing / int_ed322fd7	comment	Many straight examples occur in Killing Eve: After being stabbed by Eve in the Season 1 finale, Villanelle spends half a day being stitched up in the hospital after spending days wandering around Paris. Her wound is clearly giving her serious trouble, plus she jumped on a guy's car to disguise her injuries. Apparently she can still sneak into a passerby's car and be driven across to England, in a trunk. Then, when she gets to England, she spends another few days wandering around until being taken in by Julian, without collapsing or even arousing suspicion. By this point, it's implied that her wound is infected, but Julian won't get any medicine for her. She spends days in his house getting sicker and sicker...but is still able to overpower and kill him when necessary. Then Raymond comes to pick her up, and he got her medical assistance in the time skip, but she manages to kill a guy by breaking his neck with his own tie merely a couple of days later. Although a Non-Action Guy in Season 2, Konstanin appears to have suffered no ill effects of Villanelle shooting him, despite the fact that she aimed for his heart, despite the fact that he reappears to Eve mere days after the shooting, according to the show's chronology.
