The British woman's lip was three times swollen due to the injection of a filler and exploded at the doctor's appointment told about the terrible consequences of the procedure. Her story is cited by the Mirror.
27-year-old Alex Oakley from Kent spent £ 150 (14.4 thousand rubles) to inject one milliliter of filler into her lips. Soon after ingestion, the right side of the upper lip was swollen and tripled in size, causing unbearable pain and difficulty in speaking. On the recommendation of the doctor, the patient began to apply ice to the damaged area, but this did not work.
“The right side of my mouth turned white from lack of blood and was immobilized. It was the most intense pain in my life – a real nightmare, ”Oakley described her feelings. Two weeks after the injections, the British woman went to another private clinic, where she paid two thousand pounds sterling (192 thousand rubles) for removing the filler. According to her, when a needle was pierced through her lip, the filler exploded in front of the doctor.
“I was given antibiotics and pain relievers, and the contents of my lip were taken for analysis. Tests showed that during the procedure an infection was introduced into the lip, “said the British woman.
By now, Oakley has fully recovered. The heroine of the material recommended that readers of the publication should take a responsible approach to the choice of cosmetic clinics in order to avoid such an experience.
Earlier in November, blogger Lizzie removed hyaluronic acid fillers from her lips after four years of injections and showed the result of the procedure. According to her, in the last year she stopped giving injections because her lips did not shrink, and a large number of lumps formed inside them due to the hardened filler.
