Yep, and there it is -- I'd have no idea watching that video the risk mentioned by the top commenter there about the possibility of getting cancer for doing something like that.

This is why I'm leaning toward a "no" here... I probably shouldn't be legally allowed to pay someone else to make me something like this, regardless of what sort of informed consent form I sign.
