I have just had a second treatment of Kybella. Does bleeding at injection area mean that a vein was punctured?

Asked By:Schatten in Tennessee, IL

What would happen if it got into a vein? There is a small bruise in the area. I have read about complications with dermal fillers and I am really worried.
