smoothened
Removed the roughness
Smoothened is the past tense of smoothen, meaning to make or become smooth.
The word is redundant—smooth already works as a verb meaning the same thing: She smoothed the wrinkles from the tablecloth.
Smoothen appears occasionally but adds nothing that smooth doesn't already provide.
In scientific contexts, Smoothened (capitalized) is a protein involved in cell signaling.
