Horselover, there are some private detectives who search for missing/adopted children that use this program. Of course, it might cost you a little bit to get it done. It might be worth checking out.

This is done all the time on ads for 'face wrinkle cream' that will reduce the signs of aging. I look forward to aging, lets me know I'm alive.

I agree, debrajean. The lines on a person's face are sort of like experience indicators. I especially like my laugh lines.
Those face cream commercials can be a little bit spooky the first time you've seen the commercial. It really doesn't convince me to buy their product.

I agree with you that these lines are experience indicators, especially the laugh lines. The generation before you or the generation before that may not have those particular lines due to economical and environmental issues.

It's called vanity. Men are just as guilty as women on this score. But I agree, wrinkles are what you earn! Now, I can see using this for someone who is extremely obese to see what they would look like once they have lost the weight. That could be a very convincing argument.

Rogue, right on two counts! Men are just as guilty of vanity as women alot of the time.
I was speaking to a friend the other day and she was telling me that her sister-in-law got a stomach by-pass operation and lost 150 pounds. She looks great, she said, except for the hanging skin she was left with. She went in to have a "total body lift" (never heard of that before), and she had six pounds of skin taken off her abdomen alone! She looks really good, now, my friend said. What you said about being able to show the obese what they might look like after losing the weight would probably be a great selling point, but I wonder what the response would be when the doctor came around to explaining the "total body lift" (not included in the bypass price, by the way).

That is just a little bit scary. It really makes me wish that I had taken better care of myself years ago....

Yes, pretty amazing. But I'm not sure that I really want to know what I will look like in ten or two years' time. That might really send me into a nervous breakdwon, lol.
