Troubleshooting a weird texture once the image loads in LrC (repost due to a multitude of typos)

Question

Hey friends, I want to apologize in advance, I don't know what this issue is called so I'm lost when I'm trying to look it up and troubleshoot. So, any advice that can help solve this or even just educating me on the proper terminology would be so greatly appreciated.

I have this set I shot with colored lights, when I first click on the image, the lighting looks pretty good/how it looked IRL but suddenly LR finishes loading and suddenly there is some horrible "crunchy" texture appears in the blues on her face. (I'm attaching images, the second one is the one that illustrates the problem). The entire set looks like this. Please help 🥲

I am using Lightroom Classic 11.1 on MacOS Monterey 12.2

Too me, it looks like some form of 'Banding' as you might see in tone gradients of low bit JPG files.

Have you tried using other Profiles from the Profile Chooser?

It is not 'Shadow Clipping' indicated- as the black clothing would also show the clipping indicator color.
