What is meant by the "harm" that you permit cosmetic nose surgeries to remove, and does it include psychological harm, especially if the cosmetic procedure is minor and involves a slight improvement, rather than a complete change?
If the psychological harm is due to disfigurement of a limb, reaching the point of severe mutilation, then it is considered significant harm, and it is permissible for the owner of the limb to undergo a procedure that restores the limb to its natural form, not as a quest for increased beauty or attractiveness.
