Frankly it should be illegal below 18. Under 18 it's child abuse. It is
unnecessary and purely elective cosmetic surgery.
If it must be done let the court ordered and the Court will need to pay for
this massively expenses unnecessary elective cosmetic surgery and any future
costs than may result from it.
Between 18-21 I'm not sure how that would work, but if the parents say 'no'
then the above conditions above would apply. If they chose to proceed, then
a Court would have to render an independent judgment for the minor as to the
acceptability of such, and the parents would have to accept whatever
current and future costs and liabilities that might exist due to this to
whatever amount the judge decides. If they don't like that decision they can
still say 'no'.
After 21 the person can mutilate their body however they want as long as
they can afford to pay for it. The parents would have no legal obligation to
be involved or provide funds to do so nor would they ever be liable for such
a decision or the ramifications of that decision even if taken to court, as
they are now a legal adult and totally responsible for their own decisions
and the consequences of those decisions.
In short. once you are a legal adult you can make your own decisions and
assume the expense and results of those decisions.
As a minor, your parents/law decide. If it's a matter of law, then the
parents should not be liable for any part of it, including monetary.
