Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

The ABGIMNIC electronic training system (slimming belt) has been recalled due to safety hazards. The product poses risks of injury and health problems for children, people with epilepsy or heart disease, pregnant women, and people with skin infections. The device is also dangerous if used on the head, chest, throat, or mouth. A significant concern is that while instructions exist in English, no instructions were provided in Bulgarian, creating additional safety risks for consumers in that market.

Authorities in Bulgaria have ordered the product withdrawn from the market and recalled from consumers. However, the product contains no producer or importer information, and no contact addresses are provided for consumers to report injuries or inquire about the recall. The source does not specify what steps affected consumers should take to return the product or obtain a refund.
