Woman’s Lips Swells X8 After Lips Enlargement Injection (Photos)

After having a severe adverse response to her lip fillers, a woman’s lips became excessively swollen.

Kailee Jones,a 23-year-old lady, decided to have the injections because she felt her lips were too tiny.

She had 1ml of lip filler injected over her upper and lower lips but says that her lips started to “balloon” within an hour after the process.

Kailee thinks she had adverse reactions to the lip filler and claims that applying ice to her mouth worsened the swelling worse.

Because of her swollen “sausage lips,” the IT consultant was unable to speak, drink, or eat normally for the following 48 hours.

Kailee posted images of her adverse reaction in order to raise awareness about the dangers of lip filler.

She said: “I’ve always had thinner lips and they disappear when I smile so I wanted to make them fit my face a little bit more.

“Everything went well at the appointment and the first hour after it started swelling but I think it was just normal because they do swell.

“I kept icing them and I think that the ice might have made it worse because then they really started to blow up.

“Once it hit after an hour or two they were really big and then it was 48 hours of them being that big.

“I couldn’t drink anything or even open my mouth to talk – I couldn’t speak.

“I would say they were eight times the size of my normal lips, it was unreal. I looked like the Monsters, Inc. character.”

Doctors offered Kailee oral steroids to reduce the swelling but warned her that if the edema spread from her lips to her neck, it may block her throat.

Fortunately, Kailee’s lips began to calm down after three days, and she didn’t require any additional medication or the removal of the filler.
