Debra, 49, had a tummy tuck after four pregnancies left the skin on her stomach loose and drooping. Debra, who spoke to Pick Me Up magazine, said: “I rang The Hospital Group cosmetic surgery clinic and within two weeks, I was chatting to one of its surgeons in Southampton. Two months later I was being prepped for surgery. Bye bye flab, I thought to myself as I drifted under the anaesthetic.

“After the surgery, it was a dream come true. I had a stomach to rival Britney Spears! The kids call me ‘skinny tummy mummy’ and my husband thinks I look great too.”

And it’s not just women like Debra who are seeking surgery.

The number of people opting for surgery has soared over the past five years by a staggering 320 per cent. According to the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS), an unbelievable 34,100 procedures were performed in 2008.

Boosting self-confidence and the desire for the ultimate beach body are said to be the major reasons for people to undergo surgery.

The most popular treatment for women in 2008 remains breast augmentation, seeing an increase of 30 per cent. However abdominoplasty camea close second with 3,300 women opting to go under the knife.
