Intradermal Skin Testing - Pittsburgh Veterinary Dermatology - Pittsburgh, PA

Intradermal Skin Testing (skin test) is used to identify specific allergens causing a pet’s skin issues, such as itching, redness, and hair loss. During the test, small amounts of potential allergens are injected into the skin, and the veterinarian monitors the reaction to determine which substances trigger a response. This information helps create a targeted treatment plan, which may include allergen avoidance, immunotherapy, and medications to manage symptoms and improve the pet’s comfort.  Pittsburgh Veterinary Dermatology offers this service to our valued clients.
