Can cosmetic-marked products be injected into the skin?

Under normal circumstances, cosmetic products (labeled with a "cosmetic registration number") should not be injected into the skin. Such products may contain additives such as alcohol, fragrances, preservatives, or dyes, and are intended solely for external use on the skin surface; they must not be administered via injection into the skin. The following provides a detailed explanation:

Cosmetic products (indicated by a "cosmetic registration number") refer to daily chemical products applied to the surface of the human body—such as the skin, hair, nails, or lips—by means of rubbing, spraying, or similar methods, primarily for cleansing, protection, beautification, or decoration. These products are permitted to include certain additives like alcohol, fragrances, preservatives, or pigments within regulated limits, and thus are subject to relatively relaxed regulatory standards; manufacturing facilities only need to comply with hygiene regulations. It is important to note that even registered cosmetic products must not be injected into the skin. They are strictly intended for topical application. Injecting them into the skin may lead to adverse reactions such as redness, swelling, ulceration, or recurrent inflammation, potentially turning aesthetic treatments into disfigurement.

If a patient experiences any discomfort or adverse symptoms, it is recommended to seek prompt medical attention at a hospital to avoid delays in diagnosis and treatment.
