RE: 699221
Dear Boris Kalashnikov:
This letter is to advise you that the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reviewed your website at the internet address https://fillerx.com in December 2024 and has observed that your website offers various injectable lipolytic products such as “LemonBottle Ampoule Solution,” “Dr. Lipo+,” “Lipo Lab PPC Solution,” “DermaHeal LL,” and “Wonderfit” for sale in the United States. We have also reviewed your social media website https://www.instagram.com/fillerlux_usa/, which directs consumers to your https://fillerx.com website to purchase your products. As described below, your “LemonBottle Ampoule Solution,” “Dr. Lipo+,” “Lipo Lab PPC Solution,” “DermaHeal LL,” and “Wonderfit” products are unapproved new drugs introduced or delivered for introduction into interstate commerce in violation of sections 505(a) and 301(d) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act), 21 U.S.C. 355(a) and 331(d).
These products are especially concerning from a public health perspective because injectable drug products can pose risks of serious harm to users. Injectable products are delivered directly into the body, sometimes directly into the bloodstream, and therefore, bypass some of the body’s key defenses against toxins and microorganisms that can lead to serious and life-threatening conditions.
Your products are drugs as defined by section 201(g)(1) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 321(g)(1), because they are intended to prevent, treat, or cure disease conditions and/or affect the structure or function of the body. Examples of claims observed on your websites that establish the intended use of your products as drugs for human use include, but may not be limited to, the following:
LemonBottle Ampoule Solution

Your “LemonBottle Ampoule Solution,” “Dr. Lipo+,” “Lipo Lab PPC Solution,” “DermaHeal LL,” and “Wonderfit” products are not generally recognized as safe and effective for the above referenced uses and, therefore, are “new drugs” under section 201(p) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 321(p). Subject to certain exceptions not applicable here, new drugs may not be legally introduced or delivered for introduction into interstate commerce without an approved application from FDA in effect, as described in sections 301(d) and 505(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 331(d) and 355(a). No approved applications pursuant to section 505 of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 355 are in effect for these products. Accordingly, the introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate commerce of these products violates sections 301(d) and 505(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 331(d) and 355(a).
