Cosmetic Surgery

Q: My question is regarding septo-rhinoplasty. I have a deviated septum and outwardly the left nasal bone is wider then the right, giving an unpleasant appearance to the left side of the nose. This causes psychological distress and the deviated septum causes left side to be blocked, i.e there isn't full flow of air at certain times. The doctor said he will correct the deviation and will make the left nasal wide making it more natural and even. Along with this the nose will be defined and reduced in size in very conservative manner. I believe when they reduce left nasal bone to balance with the rest of face and make it look normal it would need to be defined to give normal appearance. Is it permissible?

Q: My daughter has a strange nose. It is very asymmetrical where one side is bigger, wider and a different shape. It does not bother her or cause her physical harm and she is unaware due to young age but I fear when she does realise this defect. I contemplate would she be able to do plastic surgery in order to correct this and if not, what actions should I take so that she does not feel insecure?

Q: I want to clarify regarding sex change to female as I'm a non-muslim. I love a guy too much more than my life. For him I can do anything. Even I can sacrifice my whole life as well. He also likes me very much for the same, so I at last decided there is only one way. That is to change to female then become Muslim and marry him, settle my life as a happily living couple forever. So please I'm seeking your advice here. First of all, I'll change my sex than later I'll become a Muslim. Next I'll marry him and settle down to a happy life as we both understand each other very much. So you are the only hope for us, because we can do this in a direct way, but we would like to seek your advice on this.

Q: I have been diagnosed with gynecomastia, an abnormal condition where a male develops breast tissue. It is a very noticeable condition that has caused me great psychological and mental pain.

What is the ruling on using surgery to correct this? I am a religious person who does his best to abide by the rules of Allah. Please advise. I can provide further info if needed.

Q: I want to know if the plastic surgery is jaaiz? After giving birth to three children, my breasts have lost shape. One breast is bigger than the other. I feel so ashamed to come in front of my husband that I can't remove my clothes in front of him. I'm going through a tough time. 

Q: I have a question. My brother who was before while he was a baby/born was a girl. After that s/he was being checked up at the age of 16-17 because s/he didn't have period like any normal girls.
