Burns claims that he has been advised by other doctors that the damage caused by the lip augmentation is so bad that he may need to have his lips surgically removed. 'What happened to me after a series of injections was far worse than any nightmare I could have envisioned,' he said. 'Not only was it agonisingly painful but it was physically repulsive in the extreme. 'It was impossible to lead any life whatsoever. I was unable to leave my house as I was so distorted with swelling and I might begin to discharge yellow pus that was coming from the holes in my face.' In proceedings lodged in England's High Court, Burns claims that the lip augmentation procedure has left him "seriously suicidal and depressed" with the result that "he could have problems for the rest of my life". |
