Companies usually start a recall weeks before the FDA classifies and publishes it; the gap above is that lag.

Reason for recall

Due to an error in the manufacturing process, it is possible that an incorrect plunger has been fitted to some capsules. This plunger does not contain the correct reactive component for Ionolux. When these capsules are activated, curing is significantly delayed and incomplete. Processing according to the instructions for use is not possible.

Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.
