Original Product: How to Check It in Costa Rica
Toxins and fillers are offered on WhatsApp and social media at prices that do not match the original product. A product without registration, counterfeit or poorly stored puts your patient and your practice at risk. This is what you can check before you inject.
Three Checks Before You Buy
- Valid sanitary registration. Every product you use must be registered with the Costa Rican Ministry of Health. Each certificate can be validated at registrelo.go.cr (in Spanish).
- Authorized channel. We are the exclusive representative in Costa Rica of every brand in our portfolio. If the same product is offered to you through another channel, ask for the registration and the invoice before you buy.
- Lot number and expiry date. Every box has a lot number and an expiry date. Send us a photo of the box on WhatsApp and we will confirm whether that lot came from MedAesthetics.

Storage Until It Reaches Your Practice
Each product is shipped and stored according to the conditions of its registration. Botulinum toxin, for example, is kept refrigerated between 2 °C and 8 °C. A product that lost those conditions may not work the same, even if the box looks fine.
