The Israeli Ministry of Health has issued a warning against using the hair straightening product "Revival Miracle" after a woman was hospitalized at Rambam Health Care Campus. An initial investigation by the ministry revealed that the product was marketed without a license and contains glycolic acid, an ingredient prohibited for use in hair straightening products in Israel. The ministry stated it views the incident with severity, noting the product's label indicates it contains the banned ingredient. A ministry representative collected a sample of the product from a salon where it was used, which will be sent for laboratory testing. The ministry advises anyone experiencing unusual symptoms after a hair straightening treatment, such as decreased urination, swelling, nausea, vomiting, abdominal or back pain, or extreme fatigue, to seek immediate medical attention and provide details about the product used.
