My slim lips ballooned like a blobfish after having filler REMOVED – I was crying & drooling all over myself
A WOMAN has cruelly been dubbed a “blobfish” after her lips ballooned following having filler dissolved.
Sara Jurado Garcia was rushed to the hospital immediately and later shared her unfortunate tale online.
The content creator racked up over 11.9million views and 1.5million likes on a clip showing two photos of her before and after the lip filler dissolving process.
Thankfully she saw the funny side of the situation and captioned the post: “I’m still laughing, it’s okay.”
Another clip, racking up 956,000 views and 56,000 likes, reveals more from the “terrible” experience.
She begins by showing a photo of herself with numbing cream smothered all over her lips.

The next snap, though, reveals how the situation quickly escalated, with Sara’s mouth entirely swollen.
Other photos show her crying and drooling down her T-shirt.
Sara decided to go to hospital where she was treated and her lips thankfully later went back down to normal.
The content creator, from Barcelona, Spain, reportedly had gotten lip filler around one year prior to having it dissolved, reports NeedToKnow.
Users have flocked to the comments to share their reactions.
One person cruelly teased: “Monster Inc.”
Another added: “The drool falling. Ufffff.”
“Don't tell me that, I'm going on Tuesday,” someone else commented.
Another user said: “I'm sorry, but by the fourth photo I couldn't hold back my laughter.”
“It’s the blob fish,” one person added.
Previously another woman’s face ballooned to double its size after getting her lip filler dissolved.
Doctors told her she had an allergy to hyaluronidase - a soluble protein enzyme that is typically used to break down the hyaluronic acid found in dermal filler.
Hyaluronidase is what the body produces naturally to break down fillers over time.

By injecting the solution, it can help the lips to regain their natural size and shape within a few days.
Typically it costs around £150 but can vary depending on the clinic.
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.
