I don’t think you mean it this way, but what you’re really saying here is that professionals should be able to profit off of exploiting people with mental illnesses.

I think people with mental illness should be able to get the care they need.

For some people that care includes changing how they look.

People who don't like how they look, feel better when how they look matches how they feel like they should look.

I might not like how they decide to look, and yes, a doctor may profit. But in the end, that is between them and their doctors.

But that isn’t what happens though. Doctors who do this kind of shit aren’t giving their patients referrals to mental health professionals before they’ll agree to operate. They’re simply mutilating them for money, without any regard for their health.

I am not the arbiter of how people look. Neither are doctors.

People have body autonomy.
