"When you decide to make a change then it’s really empowering. It gives you the courage to make other changes.”

“I’ve always felt progress is impossible without change. But change is daunting, intimidating and quite often scary. Couple this with a dose of anxiety and low self esteem regarding elements of the way you look, embarrassment over parts of your body and perceived judgement from others. As I hit 40 next month, I’m rebelling against the idea of lowering your expectations and living with what you’ve got and sitting back. This year I want to be a creative force instead, be brave, feel intrepid, become a game changer.” Charlotte had always felt self-conscious about her nose and had recently become unhappy with her breasts after pregnancy and breastfeeding. So she decided to have surgery to reshape her nose as well as lift and fill her breasts and is delighted with the results.
