Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to clarify the concept of regenerative cosmetic medicine, examine the motives that drive women to undergo such procedures, explore the jurisprudential foundations for their application, and outline Sharia-based ethical guidelines. Regenerative cosmetic medicine is considered a contemporary medical issue (nawāzil) that requires a precise religious ruling.

Methods: The study employs a descriptive and inductive methodology, collecting scholarly opinions, attributing them to their original sources with supporting evidence, and conducting comparative analysis to identify the most accurate views. Textual analysis of Islamic legal sources is also used to derive rulings on modern issues by referencing classical jurisprudential cases and building upon them.

Results: The study concludes that using regenerative cosmetic techniques to remove wrinkles in elderly women is impermissible except when medically necessary, in which case it becomes permissible. Lip blushing is permissible if carried out under specific Sharia-compliant conditions. The ruling on skin peeling varies according to the type of procedure and its intended purpose.

Conclusions: This study addresses contemporary debates surrounding regenerative cosmetic procedures that involve replacing or restoring damaged cells and tissues with modern techniques for facial and body enhancement. It examines Islamic legal rulings related to procedures such as filler injections, Botox, laser treatments, chemical peels, and similar techniques, providing a jurisprudential framework for their evaluation.
