Don't Try This At Home

The moral of this story?

For Ms Lucciso has appeared on the cover of Panorama, a news weekly in Silvio Berlusconi's Mondadori stable, with a horribly swollen upper lip, over the garish headline "The new monsters", offering herself as a terrible warning against dabbling with your looks.
[...]
"Unfortunately, the swelling was brought about by me. And I feel remorseful about it. For some days I was in a state of anguish; it was awful. I injected my lips to give them more volume ... I injected them with some chemical substance. It was a folly I will not repeat. I should have had it done by a doctor. I'll remember that in future."

Sometimes it pays to hire an expert.
