The Cosmetic Physicians Society of Australasia is warning people about the dangers of buying injectable substances over the Web after a woman suffered horrific and painful side effects from a DIY lip injection, the Herald Sun reports.

The Australian woman, who asked not to be named, released photos of her freakish fat lips and infected blotches on her face after getting a friend to jab her with products bought online.

Her recent experiment with a dermal filler designed to pump up her lips went horribly wrong as they ballooned two weeks later. Abscesses appeared on her face six weeks after the injection.

The woman, who is in her early 30s and is being professionally treated with antibiotics and drainage, has asked for the graphic pictures to be released as a public health alert.

It is unclear at this stage whether she will fully recover.

澳洲女子DIY丰唇惨变香肠嘴

       据澳大利亚《太阳先驱报》报道,一位澳洲妇女近日从网上购买可注射型物质进行自助丰唇后遭受了可怕、痛苦的副作用,澳大利亚整容医生协会因此告诫人们使用这类物质存在一定风险。

       这位不愿透露姓名的澳洲妇女从网上购买产品后,请朋友帮她注射,后果惨重。从她公布的照片来看,她双唇肿胀,脸部还受到感染。

       她本来打算试用皮下填充剂来丰唇,但此举却完全事与愿违,因为注射两周后,她的嘴唇肿胀不堪;注射6周后,脸上还出现了不少脓疮。

       这位刚刚30岁出头的妇女目前正在接受专业的抗生素和排放治疗,她要求公布这些照片,以给公众提个醒。

       目前还不清楚她是否能够完全恢复容貌。
