Sculptra

Kybella
One of the more well-known fillers is Kybella. This type of filler is a bit unique from the other options. Kybella has been used to improve the appearance of the jawline and chin area, and it can sculpt the area by breaking down fat in these areas to give you a slimmer look.
Tips for Filler Injections
Talk to your provider about the possible risks associated with your treatment. Get acquainted with the product you will have injected into your face.
Make sure you are being treated by a licensed medical professional who uses FDA-approved filler injections that are pre-filled. You have every right to request to look at the labels of your filler products to ensure you know exactly what you are getting.
Never use any filler injection products on yourself. Always seek a licensed professional to help, and never use filler on large body parts.
Warnings for Filler Injections
The FDA has several warnings for fillers, and Fillers have not been approved for use in the buttocks, breasts, or between muscles. They warn that attempting to use fillers for large areas can cause serious harm to the body and may even be fatal in some instances.
Further, the FDA has not approved needle-free fillers. You may have seen advertisements for fillers than are “needle-free” hyaluronic acid fillers. The FDA does not approve these because they can cause serious injury to the skin, lips, and eyes.
Lastly, the FDA warns against using fillers outside of the scope of a medical setting. Essentially, they warn against using products on yourself. You will not have to worry about fillers being used safely if they are done by a trained professional.
