Carnage regenerates quickly, not instantly as typically people have more than enough time to note he's doing so. And he has never regenerated his 'entire' body quickly- if at all given the one time we saw him splattered no evidence at the time insisted he was recovering from it at all and Marvel doesn't bother having a consistent canon between all their comics. Entire characters have changed on a whim of the writers- Tony has flipped between asshole and saint like 10 times now depending on who writes him. Symbiotes don't last forever either mind you- they can weaken and die- insisting Carnage can regenerate forever is a NLF in the first place.

Lucy's limits at the start of the series =/= the limits she has at the end of it btw. She kills humans in those ways because they work- other showings exist like wiping out memories, creating storms, severing nerves, stopping hearts and the like- but decapitation tends to be the end-game when humans are concered so why go through the more complex stuff?
