An Australian child psychologist has revealed teenage girls are "begging" their parents to buy them lip fillers ahead of school ball season.
Michael Carr-Gregg says Instagram is driving the worrying trend and says parents allowing their teenagers to get cosmetic surgery is "weapons-grade stupidity."
One teenage girl who got lip fillers was inspired by Kylie Jenner's inflated pout.

"I felt like my lips were too small and my older sister got a lip injection and then I saw Kylie Jenner," the 17-year-old told The Daily Telegraph.
