New mums are having cosmetic surgery after birth

29/10/2007

Cosmetic surgery is one of the processes new mothers are going through in order to look good after having their baby.

Research by online bank Egg revealed that 0.2 per cent of mums admitted to having surgery and 0.3 per cent have had botox.

Other ways of regaining their body confidence are a new hairdo, new clothes, visiting a beautician and employing a personal trainer.

"This is where a little bit of financial planning can go a long way ensuring new mums can enjoy being new mums without having to worry about money matters," said chief marketing officer at Egg Alison Wright.

Previous research by Mother and Baby magazine showed that two-thirds of new mothers thought about their shape every day and sixty per cent believed they would be happier if they could change their figure.

Of those considering plastic surgery, liposuction, tummy tucks and breast implants were the most popular.
