Compliance report
Severity: critical · Notes: Removed 'FDA approved' (critical FTC violation — devices are FDA-cleared, not approved), the specific 5-inch loss promise, and the 'guaranteed results' claim. Swapped #fatloss for on-brand contouring hashtags and added the standard '*Individual results may vary' disclaimer. Before publishing, confirm the rewritten cleared-indication language matches your actual cavitation device's 510(k) Indications for Use (services.yaml still has placeholder text).
Violations
critical: fda_approved_language
Matched: FDA approved
Where: caption, position 23-35
Devices used in non-invasive body contouring are FDA-cleared under 510(k), never FDA-approved. This wording is the single most common cause of FTC enforcement against contouring spas and is an automatic critical violation per forbidden_terms.yaml.
Fix: Replaced with 'FDA-cleared'.
high: specific_outcomes
Matched: Lose 5 inches
Where: caption, position 0-13
Specific numerical inch-loss promises ('lose N inches') are not substantiable for any individual client. The cleared indication for ultrasonic cavitation is at most a 'temporary reduction in circumference,' never a guaranteed numeric loss.
Fix: Removed the inch-loss promise; replaced with experiential, cleared-indication language.
high: guarantees
Matched: Guaranteed results
Where: caption, position 49-67
Guarantees of cosmetic outcomes are virtually never substantiable for non-invasive body contouring and are a classic FTC red flag for unsubstantiated claims.
Fix: Removed the guarantee; replaced with 'many clients see a difference' framing and added a results disclaimer.
high: weight_loss_framing
Matched: #fatloss
Where: hashtags[0]
'#fatloss' reframes body contouring as fat/weight loss. Body contouring addresses the appearance of localized fat in clients near their goal weight; marketing it as fat loss is misleading and triggers FTC scrutiny under the same rule that bans 'weight loss treatment' language.
Fix: Replaced with on-brand, compliant hashtags (#bodycontouring, #noninvasive, #dmvspa, #auracontourspa).
Warnings
missing_disclaimer
Original content discussed results but contained no '*Individual results may vary.' disclaimer required for any results-discussing content.
Fix: Appended '*Individual results may vary.' to the rewritten caption.
services_yaml_placeholder
config/services.yaml currently contains placeholder '[REPLACE WITH ACTUAL DEVICE 510(k) INDICATIONS FOR USE]' for ultrasonic_cavitation. Verify the rewritten claim language matches the actual 510(k) Indications for Use of the specific cavitation device in operation before publishing.
Fix: Used conservative cleared-indication language ('non-invasive body contouring,' 'support a more contoured silhouette') drawn from services.yaml safe_marketing_language list.
