(Cincinnati, Oh.) — Six shipments of illegal cosmetic injections including various dermal fillers and counterfeit Botox were seized by Cincinnati U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers.
These shipments were marked as having values ranging from $15-$175, while the MSRP was much higher, anywhere from $384 to $22,500. If these shipments had been genuine, the total MSRP would have been $35,600.
Two shipments came from Germany, and the others came from Thailand, Spain, South Korea, and Turkey. All were addressed to private residences in California, Texas, Florida, Virginia, Colorado, and Maryland.
“Cheap cosmetic enhancers sold online are often manufactured in unregulated facilities with substandard ingredients and no quality controls,” said Cincinnati Port Director Richard Gillespie. “Our officers and specialists enforce hundreds of laws for many partner agencies, and are committed to ensuring the health and safety of American citizens.”
Imported Botox, or botulinum toxin, is restricted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) without proper documentation.
