BPOM and Dermatologists Closely Monitor Human Tissue-Based Skin Booster Trend
A new beauty treatment trend known as the 'cadaver skin' skin booster has become a serious concern in Indonesia. This treatment uses a material called Human Acellular Dermal Matrix (hADM), which is skin tissue derived from human donors. The use of this material in aesthetic procedures has sparked widespread discussion among the public and medical professionals.
The Indonesian Food and Drug Authority (BPOM) stated that they are now conducting strict supervision on the distribution of these products. BPOM emphasizes that every medical product used for skin treatments must go through a rigorous licensing process to ensure its safety and quality for consumers in Indonesia.
On the other hand, the Indonesian Society of Dermatology and Venereology (PERDOSKI) has also provided a response. Medical experts are warning the public to be cautious and not easily tempted by beauty trends that have not been clinically proven safe. The use of human tissue in beauty procedures carries high health risks if not performed by professionals in official medical facilities.
Experts emphasize the importance for the public to always check the product's distribution permit and the credibility of the beauty clinic before undergoing treatment. This step is crucial to avoid dangerous side effects to skin and overall health in the long term.
In conclusion, authorities continue to monitor the development of this trend to ensure public safety. The public is urged to remain critical and always consult with a trusted specialist doctor before deciding to try beauty procedures that use foreign materials or donor tissues.
