Anti-aging research and treatments often raise ethical concerns.

Access to treatments

One issue is whether anti-aging treatments should be available to everyone, or only to those who can afford them. If anti-aging treatments are expensive, then only the wealthy will be able to access them, which could exacerbate existing inequalities.

Animal testing

Another ethical concern is the use of animals in anti-aging research. Some treatments are tested on animals before they are tested on humans, which raises questions about the welfare of the animals involved. There is also concern that animal testing may not be an accurate predictor of how treatments will affect humans.

Informed consent

Finally, there is the issue of informed consent. Anti-aging treatments are often new and experimental, and the long-term effects of these treatments are not well understood. Patients must be fully aware of the risks and benefits of these treatments before they can make an informed decision about whether to undergo them.
