But Ruby found out the hard way that the test is also vital before having filler dissolved too.
In fact, her face swelled up so much after she had the dissolving done that she ended up in hospital.
Ruby shared her story in a video on TikTok, which she began by showing her incredibly swollen top lip.
"I had my lip filler dissolved and ended up in hospital," she wrote over the top.
