Can I still get dermal fillers if I am allergic to dust mites?

This can be a tough area to fill for any injector given the tremendously-thin skin of the under eyes. Some ways to get around this are to inject tiny amounts at a time and have patients follow up every few months to slowly build on the filler platform they are creating. Another possible solution...
