Devil lips or Octopus lips: Words of caution 

A few medical experts are strictly against this trend considering it completely unnatural. According to them, injected fillers can inappropriately end up in a blood vessel around the lips. This may cause blockage or necrosis (death) of the tissue.

While another set of cosmetologist asserts, the trend is different aesthetic and unnatural for sure but it is not dangerous. Only the overdose of filler can pose a threat of blockage in the artery and shedding of skin around lips.

To quote Dr. Krystyna Wilczynski, “You can sharpen and contour by enhancing the vermillion border, but these ‘devil lips’ are unnatural. Filler injected inappropriately could end up in a blood vessel, causing blockages and leading to necrosis (death) of the tissue. The vessels are around the lips, so using filler inappropriately is what can cause this.”

Continuing her comment, Nilam Holmes posted: "There are 20 more reasons I can think of. No one should encourage clients or teach this to practitioners and enable them to disfigure someone else's face deliberately.
