Marilyn Monroe Facial Piercing Makes 22-Year-Old Look Like Pete Burns (VIDEO)

WATCH: When Facial Piercings Go Horribly Wrong

Brilliant fodder if your kid is trying to convince you to let them get a facial piercing - this video shows how it can go horribly wrong. 22-year-old nanny Haley Ormand from Texas wanted a 'Monroe' piercing, what she ended up with was something quite different.

"I just tried cleaning it with warm salt water and it obviously didn't work," Ormand told The Huffington Post in a Facebook message. "I literally went to bed and woke up Tuesday and it was like this, swelled up beyond belief over night!"

A Monroe piercing is an off-centre piercing on the lip meant to resemble Marilyn Monroe's beauty spot.
