Racial transformation (individual)
Racial transformation is the process by which someone changes their appearance with respect to race, either from their current race to another race or to a new category.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=When Does Plastic Surgery Become Racial Transformation - BuzzFeed News )〕〔 These changes are done through a variety of methods including temporary or permanent alterations, plastic surgery, chemical treatments, whether for the skin or hair, colored contact lens, and wigs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=A Trip Into the Ethnic Plastic Surgery Minefield -- The Cut )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Changing Race, Changing Sex: The Ethics of Self-Transformation )〕
It is similar to passing, but rather than taking advantage of extant attributes or soft temporary methods like cosmetics, this is using hard permanent methods, of varying degrees of success, in acquiring, or removing, racial features.〔〔
Motivations include racial assimilation or aesthetic reasons.

Archibald Belaney (aka Grey Owl) was considered passing. Michael Jackson's changes in appearance were “making himself into his own aesthetic vision...that just happens to make him look more white than black.”〔
