I'm still a little suspicious of new drugs and procedures. Product developers and people at the FDA have a track record of not being as smart as they think they are. They'll OK something and years later have to pull it out of the market, but not before fucking up an entire generation of people. Science is way more advanced now than it was decades before, granted, but I think the basic problem is the same: by our current level of understanding something is OK, only to discover later that it isn't. Lots of diet concoctions and plastic surgery going on nowadays that's supposedly "perfectly safe", but we won't really know til we see the aftermath.
PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?
