Woman’s ‘Grinch’ look after getting lip filler

We’ve all seen lip filler gone wrong, but one woman was left stunned when her top lip grew shockingly large after getting injected.

Briana, 22, from the US, couldn’t help but take to social media to share her lip filler horror, The Sun reports.

She posted the video to her TikTok account ‘brianagarabet’ showing off her swollen lips.

She asked: “You guys I just got lip filler and it’s so f*****g swollen, is this bad?”

In the video we see Briana initially covering her lips, but she then removes her hand away from her mouth and it’s safe to say we are shocked.

Briana’s bottom lip looks pretty normal, but it’s the top lip that is badly swollen, lumpy and bruised.

Briana’s video has since gone viral and has attracted a huge 1.5 million views.

Many TikTok users were concerned with her lips and took to the comments to express this.

One person said: “I don’t think that’s how it’s supposed to look.”

Another added: “You need to call the clinic first thing in the morning.”

A third commented: “That’s not right.”

However, there were some TikTok users that have had lip filler before and were quick to reassure Briana that this was normal.

One user commented: “This is normal. Everyone commenting has clearly never had filler. Everyone swells differently. Mine were worse.”

Another said: “My top lip was so small and blew up exactly like that for the first few days but it gets better. I swear!”

A third added: “It’s normal, I had it.”

There were many TikTok users that were horrified at Briana’s lips and compared her to characters from the hit Christmas film, The Grinch.

One person said: “Giving Grinch for Christmas.”

Another added: “Cindy lou who.”

A third commented: “Welcome to Whoville.”

Briana followed up with another video once the swelling had gone down to reassure everyone that her lips are now looking fine.

She explained: “I assure you guys, I am A-okay.

“This has actually happened to me before and I talked to my doctor and he said it was fine and I wasn’t having an allergic reaction or anything.

“I just get really swollen.

“I appreciate all the concern though, I’m fine.

“It’s still a little swollen today, but it’s for the most part healed.

“I just thought I looked hilarious and thought I would share with you guys.”
