Israel's Ministry of Health has issued a severe warning after thousands of packages of injection materials were stolen from the warehouses of two companies. The ministry fears these products, which include fillers like Radiessp, Stylage Special Lips Lido, Stylage XL Lido, Stylage L, Stylage M Lido, Stylage L Lido, and Stylage XXL Mepi, are being sold to unauthorized clinics and aesthetic salons.
The primary concern is that the required storage and transportation conditions for these sensitive medical products may have been compromised since their theft. The Ministry of Health emphasizes that once these items are removed from the regulated supply chain, their quality and safety cannot be guaranteed. Using injection materials obtained from unapproved sources, without proper oversight, poses a significant health risk to patients.
In response to the potential distribution of stolen goods, the ministry is urging physicians and professionals in the aesthetic medicine field to purchase injection materials exclusively from licensed suppliers. The public is also advised to ensure that any aesthetic treatments they undergo are performed using materials from regulated and supervised sources.
