Lifestyle journalist Kate Spicer is 39, single and - like many women - not 100% happy with her appearance. She's always been sceptical about the beauty industry but now she's contemplating action. And with £1.8m now spent everyday in the UK on cosmetic procedures, she's not alone.
This film follows Kate as she immerses herself in the wide range of bizarre, radical and cutting edge procedures now on offer to normal women willing to undergo a gruelling quest for exquisite, youthful looks.
Kate's journey takes her from wallet-busting nightingale-poo face masks and bull semen hair serum to the latest Fraxel laser technology and stem cell fat transfer procedure.
Kate has always said she would like to grow old gracefully but as she starts road-testing the treatments on offer here and in the States, the former cynic appears seduced by the effect on her looks and her confidence. But once seduced, will she know where to stop?
