Quasar MD Plus Light Therapy System Recalled for Uncleared Claims

Quasar Bio-Tech, Inc. is recalling the Quasar MD Plus Light Therapy System because the packaging and user manuals contain claims for collagen and elastin production that were not cleared by the FDA.

What this means for you

The source text does not report any illnesses, injuries, or deaths, and the hazard is limited to regulatory non-compliance rather than a direct physical safety risk like a high-risk pathogen or structural defect.
