Hyaluronidase allergy test

The Hyaluronidase Allergy Test is a vital step for clients considering hyaluronidase injections to dissolve hyaluronic acid fillers. This quick and simple test determines whether you have any sensitivity or allergic reaction to hyaluronidase, ensuring that the treatment can be safely administered without complications.

Benefits

• Ensures safety before hyaluronidase treatments.

• Identifies potential allergic reactions.

• Provides peace of mind for clients considering filler adjustments or corrections.

• Minimizes risks associated with hyaluronidase use.

How It Works

A small amount of hyaluronidase is injected into the skin, typically in the forearm or another discreet area. The site is monitored for 20-30 minutes to check for signs of an allergic reaction, such as redness, swelling, or itching.

Treatment Experience

The test takes about 20-30 minutes, including observation time. The injection involves minimal discomfort, similar to a small skin prick.

Results

If no reaction occurs, it indicates that hyaluronidase can be safely used for your treatment. In rare cases of sensitivity, alternative solutions will be discussed.

Who It’s Suitable For

This test is essential for anyone planning to undergo hyaluronidase treatments, especially if you have a history of allergies or sensitivities to enzymes or injectables.

Recovery & Aftercare

No downtime is required. In the rare event of a mild reaction, symptoms typically subside within a few hours. Follow your provider's guidance for next steps.

Frequency & Maintenance

The test is performed once prior to any hyaluronidase treatment. No repeat tests are necessary unless advised by your practitioner.
