It's not about the wavelength, it's about the power.

I use shorter or higher wavelengths (depends on the channel in question) to cook my food every day but my phone sure doesn't emit 700W

Getting cooked is also not cancer. There is also not evidence for a link between burn injuries and cancer anyway.

No evidence is needed. Tissue damage is damage and genetic stress. It can increase the risk of a local cancer.

In fact, when the healing occurs, keloid scars can form, which is a benign growth.

The healing of repeated damage to the body is a vector for cancer. For example, mesothelioma caused by asbestos. The asbestos is continuously damaging tissue in the body, and the healing of said damage leads to calcification of tissue and potentially cancer.

It's certainly possible that other repeated tissue damage, such as those from burns, could also be cancer causing.

I am not a doctor, but..

..let’s assume that a specific area of our inner body is “micro-cooked” constantly, the body will certainly try to repair that area with higher frequency and therefore there would be a higher risk of cancer, wouldn’t it?
