The most taboo looksmax topic there is and ever will be. More important than gene editing via CRISPR. IPS cells do not concern genomics. IPSCs will not change your DNA at all. (Combining IPS cells and CRISPR/cas9 will be the most powerful thing to ever exist)
I seriously recommend not giving into ADHD and reading this PDF fully. I'll attempt to explain the basics here.
Your genes are your DNA, and your genome consists of all your genes. Being "genetically blessed" is not the be all and end all if you have a malformed epigenome.
Here's a simple example:
Your genes are like the static binary of a program, (you being the .exe file). Your genes are the coding which is interpreted and executed by the machine. (Binary = 010101 .... , DNA = atcgatcgtgcactgat ..... etc)
Ask yourself: do you get the same result running the same code on a 40 year old computer compared to a new computer? Do specs play a role in the performance of the program (you). Yes obviously. Many factors matter. Even internet connection (your connections with the rest of the people in the world) play apart in who you FINALLY are.
Like a CPU interprets computer code at a machine level before executing it, your epigenome does the same with your genes.
An epigenome consists of a record of the chemical changes to the DNA and histone proteins of an organism; these changes can be passed down to an organism's offspring via transgenerational epigenetic inheritance. Changes to the epigenome can result in changes to the structure of chromatin and changes to the function of the genome.[1]
Epigenome
The epigenome is involved in regulating gene expression, development, tissue differentiation, and suppression of transposable elements. Unlike the underlying genome, which remains largely static within an individual, the epigenome can be dynamically altered by environmental conditions.
Inducing pluripotency in stem cells essentially resets parts of your epigenome, by taking your existing cells and de-attributing all its characteristics, leaving you with a cell which can become anything. Trials in vivo have already proved that this is possible. However, the pathways involved with engineering new cell identities from an induced pluripotent state is currently not figured out in full.
TLDR: You can make cells that form new bone (osteoblasts) or any cell you want/need, practically out of thin air. What you're doing is taking existing cells and de-attributing the cell from its state. Like stripping a character of all its accessories down to a point where not only can you add new attributes, but you can actually CHANGE the character like you're back at the character selection menu.
You can create osteoblasts to form new bone by de-attributing current cells to a pluripotent state. You can also just reset the aging associated with your cells; for example, inducing pluripotent stem cells from your existing skin cells, then attributing the IPS cells to act as completely new skin cells, which have only aged since they were characterized from the IPSCs. Resetting skin age is completely possible. And really almost anything looks possible. (even heightmaxing).... but I think resetting cellular age without having to recharacterise them into another type of cell from a pluripotent state will be a reality sooner than heightmaxing or growing the bones in your face to the perfect shape/symmetry/density. However, the foundation and in vivo PoC exists.
