Kids escape bullying with plastic surgery

There are concerns throughout the UK educational system that kids as young as fourteen are resorting to having plastic surgery in order to avoid being bullied by other children.

The types of plastic surgery vary enormously from nose jobs and even breast implants. Unlike reasons given before about how young people are trying to copy celebrities, this is not the case now as there are more serious underlying problems that are leading to these operations.

Most clinics would normally refuse to even see anyone under the age of eighteen, but if the child has their parents consent, then there is nothing to stop them from going ahead and having whatever type of cosmetic surgery they want.
