Answer: Sulfa Allergy and Hyaluronic Acid Fillers (Juvederm and Restylane)
Both Juvederm and Restylane are antigen-free synthetically derived hyaluronic acid based fillers. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is substance found abundantly in the human body, making up both intracellular and extracellular matrix. Therefore, allergy to HA is virtually impossible. Neither filler has any sulfa component in it.
