Aletha's disfigurement is viewed by many others as her physical appearance.

Aletha's disfigurement, which resulted from falling into hot cooking grease, is viewed by many others as her 'physical appearance'.

Disfigurement refers to the alteration or deformation of a person's physical appearance, typically through injury, illness, or some other traumatic event. It involves the significant change or damage to the normal structure or features of the body. Disfigurement can manifest in various ways, such as scars, burns, amputations, or other visible marks that deviate from the typical appearance of the human body.
