Many people are unhappy the lines on their palms. They think some of the lines mean a part their future will be bad. They are having an operation to change the length and shape the lines because they hope this will give them a brighter future. The operation takes just 15 minutes and costs $1,000. The doctor uses an electric scalpel to burn a line the palm the hand. It leaves a scar that takes a month to heal. The line looks like a money-luck line, happiness line or love line.

There are many doctors who say changing the lines your palm does not work. They say it cannot change your future because it isn't natural. Subodh Gupta, a palm reader from London, agrees. He said: "I read about this surgery and I was very surprised. Even having surgery, the lines cannot be changed." He added: "If you want to improve your fortune, take physical actions. So if you want greater health, do some exercise." However, people who have had the surgery say it has changed their life.
