No, you do not have to worry about new popcorn ceilings having asbestos.

You can still create a textured drywall ceiling with a popcorn texture if you like, but new techniques have no risk of adding asbestos.

If you suspect exposure to asbestos, prioritize seeking medical advice by informing your healthcare provider about the potential exposure with clear details about the circumstances that led to the exposure. Regular health check-ups and screenings if you work in high-risk industries or live in a home with asbestos are essential for early detection of any asbestos-related conditions. You should also consider consulting occupational health experts or legal professionals for guidance on potential next steps and preventive measures.
