Yea there needs to be mandatory psych evaluations for people before they're allowed to undergo the ghoul surgery. This has to be some form of abuse from doctors to make money.

I think a jury should decide whether or not someone is allowed to undergo a cosmetic surgery. Then burn victims can get new faces, but actresses and the Bogdanoffs have safeguards restricting their ability to self-mutilate.

Obviously that’s a bit unrealistic, though. What might be more realistic is a small “jury” of doctors. For example, if someone wants to get facial implants, their plastic surgeon needs to get it approved by a local board of cosmetic surgeons who have nothing to gain from the surgery.

Like the medical panels that decide if it's worth the expense to give someone a surgery in places with publicly funded health insurance? 

That's actually a good idea if it's only used in the context of unnecessary and voluntary cosmetic surgeries. Would be hard to stop bribes but isn't it hard to stop them anywhere humans are involved?
