Lily (pseudonym) enthusiastically shared the harvest of the past few days with reporters, "The recent price reduction is too big, it is simply the floor price." ”

The new regulations came into effect on April 1

RF beauty device "diving" clearance

The price used to be thousands of dollars, but now it only costs a few hundred yuan, and this wave of epic price reductions of beauty instruments has made consumers "copy the bottom". From the perspective of industry analysis, the upcoming new regulations are an important factor.

In March 2022, the National Medical Products Administration issued an announcement clarifying that radiofrequency therapy devices and radiofrequency skin therapy devices are managed as Class III medical devices. From April 1, 2024, radiofrequency therapy devices and radiofrequency skin therapy devices shall not be produced, imported and sold without obtaining a medical device registration certificate in accordance with the law.

"On the eve of the official implementation of the new regulations, we will remove RF products from the shelves of all platforms in accordance with the regulations. The customer service of Huazhi's official flagship store told reporters. On its product sales page, the line "supervision is imminent, the last 10 days" is very eye-catching.

Looking back over the years, the major beauty instrument brands have occupied the makeup table of the Chinese people by virtue of their strong marketing. However, behind the booming sales of home beauty devices, false product publicity and quality problems have also occurred. Previously, the first-generation Stop Eye home radiofrequency beauty device of Chupu brand was recalled due to the potential safety hazard of skin burns in extreme cases.

The issuance of the new regulations is to put the radio frequency beauty device with a high risk factor into the "cage" of supervision.

Since many RF beauty devices do not yet have the registration certificate of Class III medical devices, if you don't want to smash the goods in your hands, you can only clear the inventory as soon as possible before the new regulations are implemented.

Beauty instrument companies stand at the "crossroads"

The new regulations are imminent, and the beauty instrument companies that are busy clearing their warehouses are also standing at the "crossroads", either going head-on and applying for relevant qualifications, or they will stop there and move to other beauty instrument tracks.

The reporter learned that at present, Huazhi, Yameng, Miguang and other beauty instrument brands have completed the clinical trial filing of Class III medical devices. In addition, Meek's customer service also said that as of October 24, 2023, Meekguang has applied for registration of a number of products with the State Food and Drug Administration, and has fully submitted all the information.

However, even if beauty device companies actively apply for qualifications, it is difficult to obtain the registration certificate of Class III medical devices in a short period of time.

According to media reports, the person in charge of a beauty instrument manufacturer said that according to the statistics of the Medical Device Registration and Evaluation Center of the State Drug Administration, the first registration cycle of Class III medical devices takes about 34 months when the process is smooth.

A staff member of a third-party testing agency also told reporters that the registration cycle of Class III medical devices is measured in "years", and if there is a clinical trial, the time will be longer, and it needs to go through a series of processes.

This also means that as late as April 1, a large number of radio frequency beauty device products may be collectively removed from the shelves, and they will be put back on the shelves for sale after obtaining the registration certificate of Class III medical devices.
