Olivia Attwood has warned injectable cosmetic treatments are a 'national issue' while anti-aging methods have become 'dystopian'
Olivia Attwood has warned of a 'national issue' when it comes to injectable cosmetic procedures and the 'dystopian' future of anti-ageing right around the corner.
The Love Island star, 34, fronts a documentary, Price of Perfection, which explores the cosmetics industry and in her second series, the technique of using injectables for weight loss is explored.
In an interview with MailOnline, Olivia said: 'There are a lot of people injecting a lot of stuff into themselves and when you actually ask the questions about what's in them, they don't have the answer.
'That highlights a national issue which is really important we put a light on. At worst these things are dangerous and at best it's salt and water that you're injecting and you're basically just washing your money down the drain.
'Either way, people need to be informed about what they are putting in their bodies.'
The former TOWIE star was speaking in reference to Lemon Bottle Fat Dissolving - an injectable cosmetic treatment which allegedly combines Vitamin B2 and other natural ingredients to accelerate the metabolism of fat cells.
The process promises 'minimal swelling and minimal pain' and can cost up to £250 at a clinic but when asked by Olivia in the ITV show, several professionals did not truly know what was in bottles.
She said: 'It was a double-edged sword because I hated the fact she [the clinician] couldn't answer the questions because I'm like, we have to tell this story now, but obviously it didn't look great.'
When asked about Kris Jenner's alleged facelift, which has left fans reeling at her new look, Olivia said: 'I mean, she looks fantastic, it's unbelievable.
'Work is becoming so sophisticated now, so undetectable. There are so many things that are happening on the surgery table like facelifts, fat grafting, and stem cells that are literally turning back the clock.
'It's dystopian, it's very exciting to watch the industry develop at such a fast rate and there's no limits to what we'll see in the next 10 years in terms of scientific development of anti-aging procedures.'
Olivia is open about her personal cosmetic surgeries and revealed she does not regret any apart from her first boob job which she admitted: ' Went too far, I went too big, also with my lips.'
The TV star has always been incredibly candid with her 2million plus fanbase about having veneers, lip filler, and Botox to maintain the look that got her noticed by Love Island producers (pictured on Love Island in 2017)
On her advice to teenage girls navigating the ever-developing work of cosmetic procedures, the reality star said: 'It's important to remember that the Kardashians are living in a world where the way they look is their whole life.
'They're photographed thousands of times a day and they probably have their own body hang-ups from the world that they are in.
'So it's all about pulling yourself out of your phone, out of Instagram and understanding that real people - I hate that expression - don't look like that and I think detach ourselves from Hollywood a little bit.'
Her final parting words were: 'Don't do anything for trends. Just because things are fashionable at this one time don't let that influence you.
'Ask yourself, am I doing this because I want to look like someone else or because it's something that genuinely bothers me, and that's a hard conversation to have.'

'It's simply not safe': A thousand doctors write to MPs urging them to vote against assisted dying bill
More than 1,000 doctors have written to MPs urging them to vote against the assisted dying bill, calling it a "real threat to both patients and the medical workforce". The bill - which is due to be voted on by MPs for a final time on 20 June - would allow terminally ill patients from England and Wales to end their lives "on their own terms", providing they have a life expectancy of six months or less. A separate bill is currently passing through the Scottish parliament. But doctors from across the NHS have written to MPs, warning them of their "serious concerns". Notable signatories include Sir John Burn, a geneticist who has led decades of cancer research, Sir Shakeel Qureshi, who was knighted for his work in paediatric cardiology, Professor Aileen Keel, the former deputy chief medical officer for Scotland, and Baroness Finlay, a Welsh doctor, professor of palliative medicine and member of the House of Lords. The letter is signed by four doctors who hold OBEs, two who have MBEs, and one CBE. The letter says that while a debate is needed on end of life care, "this bill is not the answer". It raises concerns that not enough evidence has been heard from doctors, people with disabilities and other marginalised groups. "This bill will widen inequalities, it provides inadequate safeguards and, in our collective view, is simply not safe," it goes on to say, calling it a "deeply flawed bill". 1:40 Professor Colin Rees, a member of the Royal College of Physicians working group on assisted dying, said it was the "single most important piece of healthcare legislation in 50 or 60 years". "It will have very profound consequences for the future and many doctors are really concerned that members of parliament are not hearing the views of the medical profession." He said many doctors who remain neutral, or who even support the principle of assisted dying, remain concerned about the bill. "We don't think it's a bill that is safe, that protects patients, protects families, and protects the medical workforce." What stage are the two assisted dying bills at now? The Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill passed the House of Commons with a majority of 55 in November. Scotland's Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland Bill) pass with a 14 majority in May. But the legislation has not been without controversy, with 150 amendments made to get it through the first stage. The bill will return to the House of Commons for a third reading this Friday. If voted through by MPs it will then proceed to the House of Lords. 'No safeguards against coercion' One of the areas of concern raised by the medics was the inability to properly identify patients at risk of coercive control. "Vulnerable patients are at risk of coercion with women, victims of domestic abuse, and the elderly at particular risk," the letter says. It also warned it would widen social inequalities, with patients who do not have the resources for a comfortable death more likely to opt for assisted dying. "People who struggle to pay for heating or care or wish to preserve their assets for their children are at high risk of choosing to die if the option is available and the alternative is more difficult." Data from the Annual Report of Dying With Dignity from Oregon in 2024 found 9.3% of those people who choose assisted deaths do so for financial reasons. Concerns have also been raised around the inaccuracies of medical prognosis. "Research demonstrates that doctors get prognosis wrong around 40% of the time," the letter says. "As such, patients may end up choosing an assisted death and losing what could have been happy and fulfilling months or years of life." 1:50 The bill is also a risk to families, the letter says, as it does not require doctors to speak with family members. "A close relative may know nothing until they get a call to arrange collection of their relative's body," it says, adding that there is no mechanism for a family member to raise concerns about a request. The letter also addressed the potential impact on the medical workforce. Evidence from the Netherlands suggests "doctors feel pressurised when dealing with patient requests for assisted deaths, meaning that doctors may end up having involvement despite it being against their principles, because they want to help their patients".

Snoop Dogg plans to open burger truck at iconic UK football stadium - and even wants to serve fans himself
Snoop Dogg plans to open a burger truck at an iconic UK football stadium. American rapper, 53, real name Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr, has taken an interest in Celtic Park - the home of Scottish Premiership team Celtic, in the Parkhead area of Glasgow. World away from his California roots - Snoop has spoken in the past of his love for the team saying he was inspired by Ryan Reynolds' transformation of Wrexham. He has told The Sunday Mail: 'I would love to bring a pop-up burger [van] to a sports stadium to show fans that food at stadiums can be good. 'It's got to be Celtic Park, man. The secret to a good burger is the love in the preparation. The ground beef has got to be mixed with some secret spices, then add a good quality cheese and some maple-cured bacon. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'The Celtic fans are gonna love it, and to make sure they are just right, Snoop is going to be serving them himself.' He cheekily added: 'Am I going to bring my burgers to Rangers as well? Nah, I think we will give that a miss.' He also claims to have spoken to famous chef Gordon Ramsay about the possible business opportunity. Last October Snoop revealed his plans to invest in Celtic, taking inspiration from Wrexham owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. The Hollywood duo took over Welsh side Wrexham for just short of £2million in November 2020, when they were in the fifth tier of English football and had been for nearly 15 years. But they earned promotion to League Two two seasons later in winning the National League, and they secured a consecutive promotion the year after to take their spots in League One. And it seems the club's owners' work is rubbing off on millionaire rapper Snoop Dogg. Speaking to the Daily Record, the 53-year-old, real name Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr, has outlined his desire to become involved with sport, and in particular Celtic. 'I love what Ryan has done with Wrexham,' he said. 'It's just a great story. 'Investing in a sports team has been something I have been looking at for a long time. 'If the chance came to invest in Celtic, I would be crazy not to take a look at it. 'I have watched so much soccer in Europe but I have never seen fans like the Celtic fans. There is something so special about them. 'There is a reason why their fans are talked about across Europe. The best players and coaches in the world tell you there is nowhere like Celtic Park and I want to be a part of that. 'Their mascot is a hound. You couldn't make that up. Snoop Dogg becomes Hoopy the Hound – that's gotta be a match made in heaven. The headlines write themselves.' Snoop has been pictured in a Celtic shirt in the past, also saying the club are 'his boys' in a previous interview.
