    Kerry Katona has urged people not to judge her for cosmetic "tweaks"

    The 44-year-old star has revealed she's preparing for a lower facelift and insisted she's now at a phase of her life where she should be able to make decisions about her own face and body.


    Writing in her column for new! magazine, she said: "I've just had my lower facelift consultation at Pall Mall Medical, which went really well.

    "I'm very excited about it and feel I'm at that age where I can get tweaks done if I want to.

    "I know people can be really judgemental but, at the end of the day, it's my face and my body."

    She insisted her doctor has her full "trust", and she wouldn't imagine going to anyone else for similar work.

    She added: "I trust my doctor, Dr Raghavan, completely and would never go anywhere else for cosmetic work. I can't wait to see the results."

    Kerry shot to fame as a member of Atomic Kitten in the late 1990s but previously said it was such a "different time" in those days and after supermodel Kate Moss explained how she received backlash over her own natural figure, Kerry admitted that she felt as if she had to have cosmetic surgery because of how she was treated.

    Writing in her OK! Magazine column in September, she said: "Model Kate Moss recently opened up about how she used to get verbal abuse for being so slim and how parents of anorexic children would blame her.

    "I don't think that's right at all. Kate is naturally really slim and didn't deserve that, but some people just need ways of dealing with things and to blame someone, unfortunately.

    "It was such a different time back then. That's why people like me have ended up so f***** up with surgery, because we were constantly told we weren't good enough. People would point out any flaws and it makes you think you need to keep changing yourself."

    The 'Whole Again' singer has admitted that she had had some Botox on her forehead, fillers put into her cheeks and had her lips plumped to make them look thicker.

    Kerry has also previously undergone operations including a facelift, eyelid surgery and a boob job.
