Can I Use Dermal Fillers if I'm Prone to Keloids?

May 30, 2010
Asked By:TJ Swan in San Luis Obispo, CA

I've been to several different doctors, for my nasolabial folds, all recommended a different product; Radiesse or Juvederm. My folds are very superficial, but I am prone to forming keloids, should I even take the chance?
