When used, the affected area starts bleeding rapidly, where every layer of blood that comes out builds up a new layer of healed flesh till the injury has been fully transferred. If it's an internal effect, then blood will either come out of another orifice closest to the injury or a black goop if its a mental effect will fill the eyes before draining via tears.
This is one of the few experiments that got the intended effect; after a long time of trying to find a way to heal significant damage, we figured out a way to instead transfer it. This is still beneficial as we have figured out also to do it wirelessly via some quantum physics shenanigans my workers have done. I don't really care. I'm just happy it works. The only problem is that it needs to be connected actively to another individual with millions of biomechanical robots all meticulously connected to each other and the individual receiving the injury being unconscious. Thankfully we have figured out that medically induced commas do work and can still get the desired effects.
