That is very striking when studying torture.
The Nazis used torture as a mean of intimidation, so they would beat their victims in spectacular ways. Leaving marks was the point.
But when repressing the Resistance in occupied France, the goal of the Gestapo was to extract intelligence and organise sham trials. For this they used techniques of stealthy torture, such as drowning, that they learnt from French collaborators who had used them in Indochina.
