"Australian Big Brother" star Tilly Whitfield suffered major skin problems after she followed a beauty trend she saw on TikTok.

Whitfield recently spoke to New York Times (via Just Jared) to share what went down during her unfortunate beauty disaster.

The reality TV star revealed that she stumbled upon a DIY hack on the social media platform last August before she appeared on the show.

"This is the result of attempting to remove scarring I inflicted on myself trying to replicate an at home beauty procedure I saw on a tik tok video 2 months before big brother," she wrote in the post.

"Please please don't try any 'DIY' or 'at home' beauty procedures... Leave it to the professionals," she concluded.

Professional Doctor's take on the trend

According to dermatologist Dr. Jeremy Fenton, reported by Yahoo News, placing ink on the face could create major problems, especially when the product was not properly sterilized and not designed for skin.

He added that in some worse cases, the infection can even lead to a "surgical excision" to get rid of the ink.
