I mean, yes, unironically, without any shred of humour.
if anyone figures out how to do operations without needing cutting, that would undoubtedly deserve a Nobel prize.
imagine figuring out an enzyme that soften intracell adhesion and let's you move and shape living skin like play dough, then wait a bit for the cells to fix those bonds.
Plastic surgery would be trivial.
Use that as an eye drop put a contact lens with the right shape, congrats, no one needs glasses.
reconstructive surgery? easy peasy.
missing a limb? why not slowly reshape and form you skin around a prosthetic, you won't be able to move it (unless using your cool robotic prosthesis) and now you can have touch sensitivity in your missing limb.
Absolutely that deserves a Nobel prize.
although if plastic surgery becomes borderline trivial. I imagine someone getting an appointment to get a vagina, then next week getting a penis or two instead.
