In the study, commissioned by women's magazine Grazia, 54 per cent of those interviewed said that they "will have cosmetic surgery".

Acording to the Daily Mail, the report, based on interviews with 1,000 woman across England, Scotland and Wales with an average age of 34, also found that as many as 11  percent  had  already taken  the plunge - undergoing procedures ranging from nose  jobs and  breast  enlargements to "plumped up lips" and having lines removed.

Of  those considering the move, 64 per cent thought that it  would give them more confidence, 42 percent wanted to look younger and 13 per cent admitted that they wanted to look more attractive to men.

But fears of botched operations were also running high with  only 4 percent of those taking part in the magazine's Cosmetic Surgery Survey of Great Britain saying that the prospect did  not  worry them.

But  while  half of women interviewed feared infection, just as many were worried about being left scarred.

"In the last decade or so, having cosmetic surgery has become as normal as having your hair done and there's no shame in doing it any more. Times have changed since the only option  for  saggy breasts was to buy a better bra," Grazia's editor Jane Bruton said.
