Tilly Whitfeld said on Instagram that the procedure left her with an infection and scarring.
She also said she temporarily lost her vision and was hospitalized.
A Big Brother Australia contestant said an at-home beauty procedure she saw on TikTok resulted in a hospital stay after an infection caused her to temporarily lose her vision.
Tilly Whitfeld, a contestant on Season 13 of Australia s version of the popular reality-competition series Big Brother, is known to wear a blue clay face mask and wear heavy makeup on the show, which began airing in April.
In an Instagram post last Thursday, Whitfeld told her followers that this was because she suffered severe swelling and had large, red, broken welts across her cheekbones after trying to do at-home acupuncture. I literally shoved needles deep into my skin, she wrote in the post.
