Beijing Syntech Laser APOLLO V+ Medical Platform Recalled for Missing Label

Beijing Syntech Laser Co., Ltd is recalling 11 APOLLO V+ Medical Platform surgical lasers because the required certification label was not affixed to the product.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is for a missing certification label, which is a documentation and labeling issue. The source text does not report any illnesses, injuries, or deaths, and the hazard is theoretical rather than a direct physical defect causing harm.
