The reading in brief
Read the product label for the filler you are offered. This page does not rank or rate filler types. It tells you which documents to read and what to ask.
Documents to read first
Start with the FDA page on dermal fillers. It is the primary document for this topic. Read it and write down every material name, approved use and warning it lists.
Then read the ASPS article on what to know about dissolving filler. Use it to build one question: can the filler I am considering be reversed, and how?
Directives to carry out
Take three things to your consultation:
- The name of each filler product you are considering.
- The notes you made from the two documents above.
- These questions: What is this filler made of? Which areas is it meant for? Can it be dissolved? What does its label say about risks?
Do not agree to a product you cannot name.
Translator's note
This page is a reading list and a question list. We read filler documents and do not practice medicine, so treat these lists as preparation, not medical advice. A licensed provider who has examined you decides what fits your case.
