A WOMAN has warned other beauty fans to be wary of the sun after suffering a painful reaction to her lip fillers while on holiday.
Isabella Skeel told her social media followers that she’d had her lips plumped before jetting off to Spain – when things quickly went wrong.
The beauty fan explained she forgot to put sun cream on her lips when exposed to the sun, leaving her trip absolutely ruined as her lips ballooned.
The swelling was so awful that Isabella found herself in tears and spent hours in a local hospital.
Isabella said: “Girls use sunscreen if you have lip fillers.
“Vacation in Spain ruined.”
In the video, Isabella shows off her lips a day before going on holiday – they are swollen but don’t look too painful.
However, in the following clip, Isabella shows off how her lips have progressively got worse – they are seriously swollen, particularly her top lip.
Isabella is clearly in serious pain as she films herself crying, while trying to ease the pain and reduce the swelling by holding a large iced water bottle on her lips.
Then Isabella goes to the hospital with her friend and we see her with a doctor.
Isabella said: “If you laugh you’re going to hell!
“Now my upper lip is completely swollen”.
If you have lip filler and are heading away on holiday or plan on sunbathing in your garden any time soon, Dr Mark Hamilton warns: “Sunbathing, sunbeds and intense heat (such as saunas and hot yoga) ideally should be avoided for 2 weeks after Lip Filler treatment.”
He added: “Always use sunscreen even on cloudy days.
“Research shows that excess sun exposure affects untreated skin and skin treated with facial fillers.
“Excess Sun Exposure after filler injections can reduce their effects and irritate your skin as it reacts to the treatment during its healing process.”
Therefore, it is an idea to consider minimising your exposure to intense heat for two weeks after having any lip filler treatment, as a precaution to avoid any potential swelling.
Isabella’s video has clearly shocked many, as it has racked up a whopping 530k views in just three days.
It has 22.6k likes, 387 comments and 1,008 shares.
The comments were full of mixed responses from TikTok users – some were stunned and wanted to comfort Isabella, others tried to make light of the situation, while some users admitted to being put off of fillers after seeing Isabella’s reaction.
One person said: “I’m soo sorrry Girl.”
Another added: “Now I know what happened to Kris Jenner’s lips in that one episode.”
A third commented: “And this is why I would never use lip fillers.”
