Are skin boosters injected more superficially than regular fillers and if so, does it mean that they are safer?

I’m thinking of getting a Restylane Light skin booster done this week. However I read some terrifying stories re dermal fillers online, people going blind, etc. Are skin boosters injected more superficially than regular dermal fillers? And if so, does it mean that there is almost 0 chance of serious complications, like going blind?
