ANTI-AGING BUSINESS

Baby boomers are seeking magic potions to try to turn back the hands of time. Some are trying alternative and risky drugs, such as human growth hormone, while others are using creams made of testosterone and estrogen. Then there is the rapidly expanding cosmetic side of the anti-aging business, dominated by Botox and other well-known FDA-approved drugs. All told, aging is an $80-billion-a-year, rapidly growing business for the medical profession.
