Olivia Attwood, the 34-year-old TV personality, has reflected on the range of cosmetic procedures she has undergone since her 20s, including breast augmentation and reduction, Botox, and fillers. However, working on her ITV1 beauty docuseries has sparked a shift in her perspective, leading to what she describes as an “awakening” about the impact these treatments have had on her body.
In an interview with *Heat* magazine, Olivia shared how her experience on the show made her more cautious about the procedures she has previously undergone. “It has made me more careful because – as much as I do research – once you’re put to sleep, you’re unaware of what is going on,” she explained. “Being on the other side of things was an awakening because it made me realize these procedures are major surgeries.”
Olivia went on to stress that, while procedures might only take an hour with a quick recovery, they still place significant strain on the body. “We like to minimize the scale because it may only take an hour and you recover in a few days, but you’re putting your body through a lot,” she said. “It’s made me think about what I’ve put my body through.”
The former *Love Island* star also discussed her decision to rule out a future in the field of cosmetic surgery. While she respects the profession, she admitted that it is beyond her “intellectual remit” and requires years of training. “I really believe medical treatment should be carried out by a proper doctor, and that’s probably a little bit out of my intellectual remit – and eight or nine years of training I don’t have. Maybe in another lifetime,” she said. “I don’t agree with people doing two-day courses and then being able to inject people.”
Olivia also opened up about her initial misunderstanding of weight-loss injections like Ozempic. Although she has never struggled with her weight, the experience of filming *The Price of Perfection* helped her understand the effects these treatments can have. “I was naïve to how weight-loss injections can affect people,” she admitted. “When you’ve never had issues ‘keeping it off,’ it’s not something that consumed much headspace for me. But it’s given me more understanding about how something like Ozempic works.”
She explained that while she initially thought the injections simply made people lose weight, she learned they actually work by suppressing appetite. “I thought it made you lose weight, but actually, it just kills your appetite,” Olivia said. “So understanding how those drugs work – how they’re administered, who can get them, and where they come from – was a complete education.”
Despite the growing trend, Olivia has never been tempted to use weight-loss injections herself. She revealed that her goal has always been to enhance her curves, not lose weight. “I’ve spent my whole life trying to get more curves, so weight loss has never been a goal of mine,” she said.
However, Olivia did express concern over the increasing abuse of these medications. “For some people, it can be life-changing, but for others, it’s just not necessary,” she added, warning that people are putting themselves at risk by misusing weight-loss injections.
This shift in Olivia’s perspective reflects a growing awareness of the risks associated with cosmetic treatments and weight-loss medications, encouraging a more thoughtful approach to such procedures.
