Wrong verdict imo
I’m happy for people to undertake whatever bizarre modifications of their own body they wish (although some sort of sanity test might be advisable), as long as I don’t have to pay for them through the NHS. But they must be carried out by a suitably qualified medical practitioner, not some random bloke in a tattoo parlour, otherwise the NHS may be left to pick up the mess.

NHS is a diversion from my body, my choice.

If you insist on picking up the tab, you shouldn’t gripe about the cost.

It’s basically cosmetic surgery. I don’t think anyone could perform breast implants in a high street shop either.
