Price Matters—But So Does Quality
We all recognize that price plays a big role in our decision-making. But when it comes to aesthetic medicine, lower prices don’t always mean better results. In fact, they often mean the opposite. Time and again, we hear from patients who went with the cheapest option only to find that their Botox “didn’t last.” One alarming case involved a patient who received a dermal filler purchased overseas—resulting in a serious tissue infection.
Why Are Some Prices So Low?
Let’s be clear: no reputable business or medical practice can operate at a loss. If someone is offering prices significantly lower than the standard, shortcuts are almost certainly being taken. In medicine, shortcuts often compromise safety, outcomes, and ethics. This not only puts patients at risk—it raises serious red flags about the provider’s integrity.
The Legal Risks Behind Discount Injectables
What many people don’t realize is that it’s illegal for U.S. medical providers to obtain or use Botox, Dysport, or any dermal filler from non-authorized sources. These products must be purchased directly from their FDA-approved U.S. manufacturers. Due to the growing number of violations, regulatory bodies have begun cracking down on providers breaking these laws.
For example, a widespread investigation recently uncovered a network of providers—including both local and non-local practices—illegally sourcing aesthetic products. These actions not only endanger patients but also degrade the credibility of the aesthetic medical profession.
Is It Really Worth the Risk?
Sure, saving money sounds appealing. But if the only result is a short-lived treatment, you haven’t actually saved anything. Worse still, if a product is mishandled, non-sterile, or counterfeit, you risk complications that no discount can justify. And here’s the real kicker—if something goes wrong, insurance won’t cover it. That’s because illegally obtained products void liability coverage.
Even more concerning, if a provider is willing to violate the law in one area, how can you trust them with your health, safety, and appearance?
