Woman compared to ‘the Grinch’ after showing lip filler results on TikTok

Woman compared to ‘the Grinch’ after showing lip filler results on TikTok

A TikToker had her lips done but instead of being compared to her favourite celebrity, she has instead been likened to the Grinch.

The LA-based 22-year-old took to TikTok to share the results of her cosmetic procedure while her lips were still swollen.

In the video she posed for the camera, showing all angles of her face.

“U guys I just got lip filler and it’s so f-ing swollen is this bad [sic],” she wrote.

Since uploading the clip it has received over 1.7 million views, 31,000 likes and 1,100 comments.

One viewer said: “Giving Grinch for Christmas.”

“I don’t think that’s how it’s supposed to look,” another wrote.

Another assured her that it is normal, adding: “Everyone commenting has clearly never had filler, everyone swells differently. Mine were worse.”

TikTok plastic surgeon Dr Sagar Patel put her mind to rest as he said this is the perfect example of “trust the process”.

In a video uploaded the same day, she asked if she is maskfishing.

Maskfishing is when someone may appear more attractive because they are, er, covering up half of their face.

The TikToker eventually provided an update assuring us that she is okay.

She said it has happened to her before, and her doctor confirmed that she wasn’t having an allergic reaction. She said she appreciated the concern, but just wanted to share how “hilarious” the initial results were.

Would the healing process put you off getting fillers?
