LAM FACIAL PLASTICS

hi dr lam, if i were to come to you for some perlane, can we do a test run to see if i am allergic? if so, how long should i wait before the second set of shots to see if i am ok?

pretty rare stuff but i guess i could do that for you. allergic reactions usually show up within a day if it is an immediate type response. contact dermatitis (which should not be what you would experience) happens 2 to 3 days later. that would be really extreme to wait that long. remember that even if you react to it, i can dissolve out the product which will kill the allergy. in any case, i can do a test spot for you and save the vial for a day or 2 to do it later. again, i think this is excessive but i aim to please.
best,
sml
