'''Cosmetic surgery''' is one of the contemporary topics in medical jurisprudence. Its religious rulings have been discussed in some contemporary jurisprudential books and in response to *istifta'at* (religious inquiries). Most contemporary jurists believe that if cosmetic surgery has a rational purpose, it is permissible to perform it. Based on this, [[Hossein-Ali Montazeri]] and [[Mohammad Fazel Lankarani]] have considered the provision of beauty to be among the rational purposes. In contrast, [[Mohammad-Taqi Bahjat]] and [[Mohammad-Ali Alavi Gorgani]] have not considered cosmetic surgery permissible if it is solely for the purpose of increasing beauty.

From the perspective of jurists (*fuqaha*), if cosmetic surgery is solely for the purpose of gaining beauty, it is not permissible if it involves looking at and touching a non-*mahram*. However, if it has a therapeutic aspect and its performance is necessary, and there is no doctor of the same gender available, there is no issue.
