Please remember that this treatment is currently NOT approved as safe by the FDA. While it has great appeal and if all the issues are worked out will be a great addition to our treatment options, it would be wise to wait until proper studies have been done to determine exactly what the composition of the material should be and how it should be used safely. These studies are currently underway so either participate in a proper clinical trial or wait until the answers come in.
