Could I be allergic to juvederm?

Dirl771
I am getting married in three months and I hate my nasolabial folds. I have recently (past few years) developed allergies to things I was never allergic to ie: penicillin, fish, nuts. I am concerned that if I get the juvederm injections and have a bad reaction that I will look awful on my wedding day. I have also read some scary blogs about woman who have developed dizziness and mental disturbances which lasted months after injections. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Bride to be
