Claims that exceed the category
Language describing a Section 361 product as treating, curing or reversing a disease. Claims of cartilage regeneration. Promises to avoid surgery. Lists of unrelated conditions — knees, neuropathy, autoimmune disease, lung conditions — treated with the same product.
That last pattern is particularly telling. A product with a specific structural function does not plausibly address unrelated systemic conditions.
Regulatory language misused
"FDA-registered" presented as though it meant approval. "FDA-cleared" applied to a tissue product, which is a device term. References to a registry described as a clinical trial. Vague invocations of FDA compliance without specifying the pathway.
Sales pressure
Discounts expiring at the end of a seminar. Prices quoted only after a lengthy presentation. Financing arranged on the spot. Reluctance to provide written pricing in advance.
For sales made at seminar or event locations, the FTC Cooling-Off Rule (16 CFR Part 429) may give a three-business-day cancellation right. A clinic that does not mention this is not disclosing something you may be entitled to.
Evidence handled loosely
Testimonials in place of data. Before-and-after imaging without context. Citations to studies that used a different product or a different condition. Reluctance to discuss studies that found no benefit.
Guarantees are the clearest signal of all. No one can guarantee a biological response.
