U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials in Cincinnati reportedly seized dozens of shipments of unapproved injectable cosmetic treatments like Botox and other injectable fillers over the course of two weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n

The federal agency discovered that various states across the United States, including Oregon, South Carolina, Florida, and New York, were receiving consignments of unregulated fillers from Bulgaria, Spain, China, and Korea.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to a news release, law enforcement officials were able to seize 78 consignments of products that, had they been genuine and approved by the Food and Drug Administration of the United States, would have had a total value of nearly $175,400.<\/span><\/p>\n

Injectable cosmetic treatments are subject to FDA regulation because they may contain dangerously unknown ingredients, the release states.<\/span><\/p>\n

The injectable cosmetics seized included products from multiple brands.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Assistant Commissioner for Import Operations at the FDA has stated that it is impossible to know if these drugs were produced using good manufacturing practices and that sterility is not always guaranteed.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the United States Department of Justice, in November 2022, a doctor practicing in the San Francisco area entered a guilty plea in connection with the use of unapproved products that she sold as genuine Botox and Juv\u00e9derm.<\/span><\/p>\n

The authorities claim that she was in violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act because she received and delivered drugs that were purchased outside of the United States and that were misbranded and unapproved by the FDA.<\/span><\/p>\n

More than one million dollars were brought into Clark’s practice as a result of the sale and use of the products.<\/span><\/p>\n
