Is skin testing required before dermal filler treatment?

[Somayeh]

Hi

I would like to have the Juvederm dermal filler treatment that you offer at your clinic to fill in a few wrinkle areas in my face. I would like to know if I need to have skin testing before I have Juvederm dermal filler treatment or not? Years ago, I had a different brand of dermal filler injected into my face and I was told that I need skin testing beforehand. Is that the case with Juvederm too?

no skin testing is usually required before Juvederm dermal filler injections.
