Olivia Buckland On How 'Horrific' Lip Fillers Scarred Her Face

SO many celebs have lip fillers these days that it often seems like no big deal to casually go and get your pout pumped up on your lunch break.

Fancy watching Liv and hubby-to-be Alex Bowen test their relationship in a game of Mr & Mrs?

But Olivia Buckland is keen to remind us all that actually, any kind of cosmetic procedure comes with risks and definitely shouldn't be rushed into.

Liv's been sharing her own lip filler nightmare, in the hopes that it might make people think twice about going under the needle for a fuller pout.

Everyone from Charlotte Crosby to Kylie Jenner has been tempted by the plumped-up lip look, and Olivia herself started following the trend and experimenting with her fillers two years ago.

But, speaking to Now magazine, Olivia has admitted that she regrets going for the treatment after it lead to ‘horrific’ results and even left her stuck with scarring. Yep, we’re shuddering too.

"I had lip fillers before, but now I'm so against it," Olivia spilled, making it clear that she'll be staying WELL away from the filler in future.

But while her own experience might not have quite gone according to plan, the Love Island star went on to insist that she'd never judge anyone who decided to try the proceedure for themselves.

"I've always had the opinion that, if you want to do something then do it - as long as it's for yourself. But they went so wrong for me."

Sending out a gentle warning to any fans that might be considering a little boost for their lips, Liv warned: "I had them two years ago and they scarred my face, it was horrific! I would never go back there."

Eesh, proof that what works for Kylie Jenner might not necessarily work for the rest of us.
