Permissibility of treatment to remove congenital facial deformities and others

Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. A message from a male or female listener; the questioner says: There is a congenital defect in my face that causes me trouble, as many people mock me. I have thought a great deal about a reconstructive operation to remove that disfigurement. What is the opinion on this? Is it permissible or not? May Allah reward you with good, for I am thinking a lot about this condition. Please guide me, may Allah preserve you.

Answer:
If treatment is possible and this disfigurement can be removed, there is nothing wrong with it. This is something Allah the Exalted has made permissible. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Seek medical treatment, but do not seek treatment with what is forbidden." If that condition can be treated and this disfigurement removed, there is no doubt about its permissibility, and praise be to Allah.

The presenter:
Praise be to Allah.
