The labeling of therapeutic devices in Japan reflects both the inherent commercial attributes of the therapeutic device product itself and the social attributes of the users who primarily purchase and use it. These characteristics are represented not just through the product itself but also through package design, notably the textual labeling on the box, as these products are consumed based on consumer preference. Furthermore, the fixed images associated with the types of characters used—such as kanji, kana, and romaji—and the types of fonts—represented by Gothic, Ming, and handwritten styles—combine with the attributes of these products to form their value.
