On your second point, I really don’t think most of the surgeons doing this sort of butchery are the same ones doing regular reconstructive surgery, as in your example…
They’re different specializations…
Is there some crossover (in terms of breast reconstruction and implants)..? Sure. But it’s very rarely the same surgeons, or indeed the same practice…
You go to a cosmetic surgeon because you want to change how you look.
You go to a specialist plastic/reconstructive surgeon to fix something after a medical problem.
Hell, even I have been to a plastic surgeon, after having a potential skin cancer removed.

I don’t view them as being the same.
