A medical aesthetic practitioner has revealed five things he would never do as a cosmetic doctor – as a warning to people before they book their beauty treatments.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Dr Richard Devine is a London-based aesthetics doctor who frequently shares tips and tricks on TikTok.<\/p>\n
In a recent video, he advised clients against a range of popular beauty enhancements, including Russian lip fillers and sunbeds.<\/p>\n
The video has since racked up over 1.6 million views, and many have taken to the comment section to share their thoughts on Dr Devine’s advice.<\/p>\n

First, Dr Devine warned viewers against thread lifts, a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses threads under the skin to create a more lifted appearance.<\/p>\n
While the temporary procedure has proven popular as a much less invasive alternative to a facelift, Dr Devine cautioned others against thread lifts because ‘they’re painful, they’re expensive, and they don’t last.’<\/p>\n
Next, the doctor moved on to Russian lips, which involved injecting filler from the inside of the lip outwards to create a lifted look, rather than the plumper appearance you get from regular filler.<\/p>\n
‘This is an absolute no-go, unless of course, you want to look like a duck,’ Dr Devine said.<\/p>\n
The third warning Dr Devine issued was against having cosmetic treatments by a beautician or a non-medical professional.<\/p>\n
He said: ‘Non-medics don’t have any proper medical training. If something goes wrong, they’re not going to be able to adequately manage the complication.<\/p>\n
‘They’re far more likely to disappear if anything goes wrong.’<\/p>\n
‘I’d never use Juvederm filler,’ was his fourth warning.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The cosmetic doctor warned viewers against Russian lip filler because it can leave users looking ‘like a duck’\u00a0<\/p>\n
Juvederm is a type of dermal filler used to add volume in specific areas on the face, including cheeks and lips.<\/p>\n
He said: ‘In my experience, the filler gradually swells with time, so the initial result can become distorted.’<\/p>\n
Lastly, Dr Devine issued a stark warning against using sunbeds.<\/p>\n
‘I would never use a sunbed. Sunbeds destroy your collagen with time, making your skin look wrinkly,’ he said.<\/p>\n
‘They are also a huge risk factor for cancer. Don’t do it.’<\/p>\n

A third wrote: ‘Absolutely true and if some people can’t handle people who speak the truth, that’s their problem.’<\/p>\n
Another said: ‘Sunbeds are the biggy! Damage not only your skin but your DNA!’\u00a0<\/p>\n
A fifth added: ‘I personally only go to medical professionals to have Botox. It gives me peace of mind to know that they\u2019ve got that background and education!’\u00a0<\/p>\n
