What type of filler options are available for those allergic to bee stings?

Question

Hi there, I have pretty bad eye hollowing and would love to find out if there is a filler option out there for someone like me. I have been told that it is not the filler I would be allergic to but the dissolving enzyme if it needed to be reversed.

Hello,
Correction of eye hollows with fillers transforms a tired face to a refreshed face. 
I suggest a skin test with the filler and enzyme prior to your treatment.
Wishing you the best in your beauty journey,

Advice from specialist allergist physicians seems to indicate the risk of a severe allergic reaction would be very low .However there is an alternative antidote which is not derived  from sheep or cow which could be used in the unlikely event of its requirement. Most dissolving is elective and you have time to figure this out with the help of an allergist .In the event of an emergency situation , the allergic reaction can be treated , just make sure you are at a qualified doctors surgery and being treated by a doctor with the requisite skills and equipment

Technically speaking you can have any of the fillers currently available in the market, my personal recommendation is to use your own, autologous fat for grafting as it will produce natural and long-lasting results. Good luck from New York City
