“This One Device Paralysed My Face” #what

When new devices, technologies, or medical treatments are introduced, we need to be cautious and open-minded about the possibility of unexpected side effects that may not have been apparent during testing. While rigorous trials and safety checks are conducted before rollout, these are often done in controlled environments with a limited number of participants. Once a device is used by a larger, more diverse population, unforeseen issues can emerge due to variations in age, health conditions, genetics, or even real-world usage patterns that weren’t fully accounted for in initial studies.

History has shown that even well-intended innovations can have unintended consequences. Whether it’s a new medication, wearable technology, or advanced medical device, what works well in trials may behave differently in a broader population over time. This is why continuous monitoring, post-market surveillance, and a willingness to adapt or recall faulty technology are essential.

Would it kill them to put a warning label on these products?

I agree with you sir just like on laser hair removal.

[Bowsby]

That's exactly what the AECL said to the victims of the Therac 25

As a simple straight male, I don't think I've ever heard about "glass skin" before not do I really want to know what that means in general

[Anamillio]

I feel sad for girls in this generation. So much pressure from social media to look a certain way. 😢

i genuinely think women are doing themselves a massive disservice by continuing to even give these kinda things a chance. "beauty is pain" should've been a call to give up the merciless pursuit of self-perfection, NOT a reassurance that we should keep doing it despite the costs.

Don't bodies function off of small electrical pulses? Like, tasers make your muscles lock up, so I feel like this device could cause issues.

[KimberlyPatton-xn]

Temporary or not, my first thought is to never go near that thing and recommend that fact to anybody- why take a chance?

[erzebet]

Correlation does not equal causation. Is it possible the device caused her paralysis, of course! Is it guaranteed just because it happened two days after using it, no.

This tiktok generation just doesn't think anymore.
