I've had so much filler now my huge lips are LEAKING – trolls say I should ‘buy a puncture repair kit in Halfords'
A WOMAN has shared the shocking reality of what can happen if you have too much filler injected into your lips.
Sarah-Jane Sinclair, a 28-year-old mother from Harlow, Essex, used to look like your typical girl next door until she got a drastic makeover six years ago with tattoos, fake tan, long nails and lip filler.

Now, the brunette has been labelled the 'Poundland Katie Price ' after showing off her fake look online.
Not only does she get Botox every few months, but she also gets her plump pout maintained every two to three months - with 2ml of filler injected each time.
While Sarah-Jane, a self-confessed tattoo addict, loves her enhanced appearance, she has now been left lost for words after noticing filler leaking from her huge lips.
Posting on social media, the inked woman who has previously been slammed as 'demonic' for her unique look, squeezed her top lip, only for a clear liquid to leak out.
Stunned by her leaky lips, Sarah-Jane, who posts online under the username 'Essex Ink', wrote: 'My lips are leaking filler.
'I noticed some bumps so [I] squeezed them. This was the result.'
Showing off the migrated filler, she gasped: 'Can you see that? That is f*****g filler coming out of my f*****g lips.'
Opening her mouth is disbelief at her lip filler which she claimed had 'gone wrong', she continued: 'What the f**k?! I'm shook.'
According to Karidis Clinic Londo n, the rise in popularity of over-exaggerated pouts and trends such as the ' Russian lip ' has led to an increase in issues with lip filler migration.
These techniques typically involve multiple punctures of the lip border, making it likely that filler can leak out.

One person joked: 'Buy a puncture repair kit in Halfords.'
Another added: 'Your body [is] trying to tell you something.'
A third laughed: 'Buy a plastic pool repair kit.'
At the same time, one beauty enthusiast gasped: 'Whoever did this to you needs their license taken away.'
What are the risks of lip fillers?
THE RISKS of dermal fillers depend on whether the procedure was done correctly and the type of filler used.
The NHS recommends you speak to your practitioner about the risks beforehand.
Serious problems are rare but can include:
Infection
A lumpy appearance under the skin, which might need to be treated with surgery or medicine
The filler moving away from the intended treatment area, which may need to be removed using surgery
Scarring
Blocked blood vessels in the face, which can cause tissue death and permanent blindness
You should see your GP if you have any complications that need medical attention and speak to your practitioner if you're not happy with the results or experience lumpiness.

Whilst someone else questioned: 'I mean, are you honestly surprised?"
Not only this, but another agreed and asked: 'I come with no hate but are you surprised? There's lip filler and then there's over the top lip filler.'
Meanwhile, others shared their advice for Sarah-Jane, as one recommended: 'Go to the doctor.'
A second chimed in: 'Just keep the area clean, ice if necessary, take anti inflammatories and try not to squeeze them. Monitor it and see your GP if symptoms worsen, you develop a fever or you think the wound has become infected.'
A third then suggested: 'Don't squeeze it lovely, speak to your esthetician, she may have some advice to help you.'
