Resting a body inside a Cocoon, the Alien slowly transmutes the biology of the subject; changing the genealogy of said subject for the purposes of adaptation to a basic function, or genetic capability. While this effect seems simple, it is nothing but; the person in question is subjected to a forceful moment of drowsiness before being sat in a fetal position.
Thus begins the process: a cocoon is formed using the salivary regurgitation of the Xenomorph, creating a thick leathery cradle for the body to be placed in. The Cradle is then filled with Amniotic fluid provided by the Xeno-Mother, to which the Person inside will be drowned by soon. To ensure their survival, the Xeno-Mother injects their breathing apparatus, whatever that may, be with a fleshy umbilical that which is attached to the Cradle's respiratory organ.
This process may shock the subject into a state of fear and confusion, leading them to harm the process, so to ensure they won't interfere with the progress, the Cradle's biological appendages wrap around the limbs of the body and seal themselves. Injecting them with a numbing effect of which makes movements slow and constricting: You are awake, you can move, it's dark, wet, hot, you're barely being kept alive by the pumped hot air in your body. All you can hear is the muffled sounds of a monster lurking just outside your shell. You can break out... But will you?
On the outside, it looks like the most horrible state of body horror, that ends with the cocoon bursting with amniotic fluid, being set anew; like a reborn child.

The blade of the scalpel gains an ethereal shimmer as it is activated: the nano-machines composing its tip surge into the subject and begin to painlessly (but violently) tear apart and viscerally replace the targeted system and area. It is gruesome and horrific to watch the drawn out thirty-minute transformation of sinew, flesh and bone be made into synthetic counterparts by way of microscopic factories made of biological matter.
…The aftermath is initially disorienting and nauseating - the unnatural feelings of synthetic augmentation can potentially traumatize those afflicted. It may take time and therapeutic assistance in order to overcome these issues.
The nano-machines within are given a command alongside the patient - if the patient breaks protocol, the machines revert the augmentation.
