Rachel is a 29-year-old woman who is trying to tell her story and advise other women not to make the same mistakes she did. Lip injections are, for many women, a way to enlarge the lips and remove imperfections. It is important that this procedure be performed by a professional, which in the United States is not mandatory because it is not considered a medical treatment. The consequences of incorrect application of botox can be horrific.
Botox vždy u profesionála!
Rachel attended a “botox party”, which is very popular in the United States. Originally she did not want to undergo it at all, but the woman who organized the event convinced her. Rachel thought the procedure would be performed by a nurse, but the organizer had no medical education or qualification. Rachel, however, only found that out much later.
Rachel nyní zahájila kampaň
The young woman had a small lump on her upper lip, and so she was persuaded to get a botox injection. Fillers are injected under the skin to firm or smooth an area of skin. Because it is not officially a medicine, anyone can administer it. Rachel has now launched a campaign for such procedures to be performed only by professionals and to be legislated.
She feared she would die
Everyone has a different tolerance for cosmetic procedures. Rachel’s experience is agonizing. When she returned from the party, she went to lie down. A few hours later she woke up with unbearable pain. Her lips had swollen up badly. “I had swollen lips, I had never experienced anything like it and the pressure was unbearable,” Rachel told the British magazine The Mirror.
She now regrets that she didn’t do research before the procedure
She had no idea what could happen after a botox injection. If she had gone to a doctor for the procedure, he could have treated her and would have known what to do. In this case they didn’t know what they injected into her lips and could not properly deal with its reaction. Always keep in mind that before performing such a procedure you need to know the expertise of the person performing it. If a surgical procedure is to be carried out, it should be performed by an experienced doctor. The same applies to botox.
