Model looked like she’d done '10 rounds with Mike Tyson' after cheap lip fillers

A glamour model says she was piled with booze before being given dodgy lip fillers that made her look like she'd done "10 rounds with Mike Tyson".

Grace Teal says a newly-qualified beautician offered her and her pals the £80 injections after giving them a few glasses of prosecco.

Feeling tipsy from the wine and enticed by the prospect of fuller, sexier lips, the 32-year-old agreed to the treatment.

But the end result left her regretting that decision, the Daily Star reports.

Mum angry it took ambulance eight hours to reach her son when he broke his wrist  

Her lips soon became painfully swollen, bruised and lumpy.

The mum-of-one said: "As the weeks passed by I developed lumps in my lips.

“I visited a specialist aesthetics doctor who painfully removed the lumps by stabbing them with a needle and squeezing them out.

“This is so uncomfortable, even if you have numbing cream.”

Mum's lip filler left her with 'sausage lips so bad that they made friend sick'  

Grace added: “I have seen so many girls with botched-up fillers it’s scary. I can’t stress enough how important it is to pay that bit more and go to a qualified practitioner with good feedback from customers.

“The last thing you want to do is distort your look when you’re aiming to enhance.”

Grace spoke as the Department of Health prepares to launch a campaign to ensure the public are fully informed about the importance of seeking professional advice regarding fillers, Botox and cosmetic surgery.
