I am thinking of getting Juvaderm injections but have a nut allergy and really worry about it. Is it safe to get?

Juvederm is made from hyaluronic acid which is naturally occurring in our body already.  Having a nut allergy is not a contraindication to Juvederm injections.

A nut allergy should not in any way preclude you from getting an HA filler such as Juvederm. Hope this helps and good luck.

Nut allergies are not a contraindication to Juvederm injection. Juvederm is composed of hyaluronic acid and lidocaine and will not cause an allergic reaction unless you have a known allergy to lidocaine which is a commonly used anesthetic. Discuss your concerns with your injector prior to treatment. You should be fine. Good luck!

Thank you for your question.  Having a nut allergy is not a contraindication to receiving Juvederm injections.  You should be just fine to proceed, but please be sure to see an expert injector for an in-person consultation to fully discuss your concerns and your goals and expectations in order to determine the best treatment plan.  Hope this helps and best wishes! 

There is no known contraindication to have Juvederm injections if you have a nut allergy.  Juvederm is a hyaluronic acid that should not trigger your allergic reaction.  I encourage you to share your concerns with your injector for more information.

Thank you for your question.  Allergic reactions to Juvederm and other FDA-approved hyaluronic acid fillers are exceptionally rare.  Juvederm does not contain any nut products, and there is no contraindication to receiving Juvederm injections if you have a nut allergy.  That said, if you have a history of severe allergic reactions (like anaphylaxis), or have several allergies and sensitivities, I would discuss this with your dermatologist or plastic surgeon during your consultation.  Best of luck!       

Yes, it is ok to receive Juvederm injections if you only have a nut allergy. This product is hyaluronic acid, which is already present throughout your skin. It's a great product to fill in facial lines and create a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance.

Thank you for your question donziepee. I understand your concern. Juvederm is a hyaluronic acid filler designed to enhance the
appearance of the face. Having a nut allergy is not a contraindication to having a Juvederm treatment. Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!

Hi, I have used dermal fillers to shape many cheeks, chins, lips and jaw lines as well as filing in various folds on the face.  A nut allergy would not preclude you from having Juvederm or any of the HA dermal fillers.Hope this helps.

As long as you have no allergy to Xylocaine or staph organism/ byproducts, then there is very low risk of having Juvederm injections. The hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the body so you are unlikely to have a reaction to the filler substance. Be sure to understand the risks of the injection technique - worst complication would be occlusion of an artery resulting in loss of vision or loss of facial tissue. Expert injectors know how to avoid this - but there are always risks present with any procedure. Best wishes.
