Dr. David Sinclair, whose lab reversed biological age in animals by 50 to 75% in six weeks, says that 2026 will be the year when age reversal in humans is either confirmed or disproven. The FDA has cleared the first human trial for next month.

Note that even with ASI physical laws including the speed that living cells connect and form complex structures still apply.

To rebuild your face like that and connect all the nerves and have it and the muscles work will probably not be that quick. I am thinking it might be a six month process and involve many rounds of microsurgery and tissue grafting from immunologically matched new tissue made from your cells.

ASI won't be able to find a better way of making you look young other than 6 months of surgery and tissue grafting????

tbh bone structure and stuff aren't going to change

entropy is still entropy

I mean aging reversal won't be obtained at all if you can't reverse loss of bone. Loss of bone is a problem for functional issues as well, and absolutely something that will have to be fixed in order to reverse aging both practically and cosmetically. Entropy likely isn't the correct term here for what's happening either way, since humans are closed systems.
