Is it safe for me to get HA filler in my lips with a history of anaphylaxis and multiple allergies?

Peaceful5336
In looking into HA fillers I’ve found sources that warn against getting them with a history of anaphylaxis.I have a severe allergy to peanuts and allergies to tree nuts, animals, and pollen.It’s not uncommon for me to develop a patch of hives throughout the year without explanation.I’m always freaking out that I‘ll be allergic to new things or have unusual reactions (a bit of a hypochondriac), so I’m wondering if there’s a safe option for me.I’ve used face products with HA before without issue
