Ruling on performing cosmetic procedures to treat deformities

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Are medical procedures to beautify a deformed part of the human body considered changing the creation of Allah? Or is it forbidden? Or is it permissible? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
There is no harm in that. If there is a defect in his hand, or a dark spot, or on his face, or on his nose, or on his lip, and he corrects it, there is no harm in that. Praise be to Allah. The Lord (Exalted and Majestic is He) commanded the servants to do what is in their benefit and well-being. So if he does what benefits him and brings him ease, it falls under the authentic hadith:
Allah has not sent down a disease without sending down a cure for it; He has made it known to those who know it and unknown to those who do not know itما أنزل الله داءً إلا أنزل له شفاء، علمه من علمه، وجهله من جهله
Sunan al-Bayhaqi 17:517
So praise be to Allah
O servants of Allah, seek medical treatment, but do not seek treatment with what is forbiddenعباد الله تداووا، ولا تداووا بالحرام
If there is a dark spot on his face, or veins that bother him, or warts, or spots that bother him, and he removes them, there is nothing wrong with that. Or if it is in his hand, or his leg, or his head, or elsewhere. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
