Researchers at University College London predict that the UK injectables market will be worth a staggering £11.7bn by next year, thanks to the treatments being available everywhere from high-end clinics to local hair salons.
And for mum-of-three Marie McCrory, the emerging industry has earned her the nickname 'the Sculpting Queen' from adoring clients thanks to her jaw-dropping results.
The 46-year-old, based in Bathgate, only launched her business -
She is fully trained in body sculpting and offers treatments including non-surgical vacuum Brazilian Bum Lifts (BBLs) and tummy sculpts - the high-street solution for women who want to blitz belly fat or boost their booty.

She told Fabulous: "I've been in and out of the beauty industry since 2004, but after having my daughter at 40, I felt a strong desire to work for myself again and create something flexible, fulfilling, and empowering.
"I initially retrained in aesthetics, but once I discovered body sculpting, I was hooked.
"I loved that it offered real, visible results and helped clients feel confident in their own skin without surgery.
"Since launching, the response has been incredible—my business has grown rapidly, and I've even expanded into teaching others how to do the same. It's been life-changing."

Marie's tummy sculpt procedure helps clients lose inches of stubborn fat from their stomach area.
Meanwhile, the XL Booty is dubbed a safe alternative to BBL surgery and is performed using vacuum cups which Marie promises "gives instant results from the first session".

Marie's prices start from just £80, with block bookings available.
Clients can also cheat their way to 20,000 crunches or squats without stepping foot in the gym with the EMS machine which uses electrical pulses to stimulate the muscles.

And for new mums, Marie offers up a pelvic floor seat which is equivalent to 11,000 pelvic floor exercises in just 30 minutes.
"It's been absolutely life-changing for ladies with bladder issues after having kids", she told us.
Other specialist treatments target body hang-ups including bingo wings, bra bulge and love handles.
One of Marie's clients even has "abs for days" after just three 30-minute EMS sessions on her stomach.

She said: "It honestly feels amazing to be able to offer a safer, non-invasive alternative to surgery.
"So many people want to enhance their bodies, but the thought of going under the knife - or travelling abroad for risky procedures - can be really daunting.
"With body sculpting, clients can achieve real, visible results without the risks, downtime, or long recovery periods that come with surgery.

"I love that I can help people feel more confident and empowered in their own skin in a way that's safe, accessible, and affordable. It's all about enhancing what you already have."
Marie, who used to work in recruitment, revealed the demand for body sculpting "grew so quickly" that she went from barely scraping by to consistently earning five figures in just a few months.
"It's been such a financial relief", she smiled.
"I'm not only fully booked for treatments weeks in advance but I also launched XL Booty training academy a few months ago and it's just went crazy.

"I can earn around £6,000-£10,000 per month between the treatments and training academy."
And she insists that her treatments are not a lazy approach when it comes to achieving your dream body.
She said: "I wouldn't call these treatments lazy. They work best if the client is on a weight loss journey or they look after themselves eating-wise and some exercise too.
"Water is key. They have to drink two to three litres of water a day especially with treatments like the tummy sculpt."

Glowing reviews
Marie has a long list of dedicated clients on her books and has racked up glowing reviews for the procedures she offers.

"I constantly felt bloated and a lot bigger than what I was before. It made me so insecure and I hated my stomach.
"I tried everything to get my body back to the way it was before - the gym, diets, anything I could but nothing seemed to work until I found Marie.
"She was so helpful and guided me through what the best treatment would be for myself.
"After only one appointment I saw a massive difference. I've had two appointments now and can finally say I'm starting to love my body again and it's given me my confidence back!!"

Another client, Karen, booked in for the non-surgical BBL after originally considering going under the knife.
She gushed: "OMG I can't say how delighted I am with the results. Marie is so professional at what she does. She makes you feel really at ease and explains the whole process in great detail.
"I found it pretty painless and I never imagined the instant results would be so good. She gets a five-star from me and now I have the best bum I ever wanted."

Someone else who opted for the XL Booty treatment has since hailed it as the "best decision" she's ever made.
The customer, Zoe, said: "I decided to go to Marie after doing some research on bum enhancements. I had considered surgery but found this quite daunting with all the things that could go wrong.
"After seeing all Marie's work and how safe and non-invasive they were I decided this was the right way to go and I was not disappointed. I had immediate results with no pain whatsoever.

The 5 habits making you broke according to savings whizz who has £100k in the bank AND plans to retire at 40
A YOUNG woman has shared five ways you're making yourself broke every month. Advertisement 2 Mia McGrath shared her top tips to stop wasting money Credit: tiktok/@miarosemcgrath 2 At 24, she already has £100,000 saved Credit: TikTok / @miarosemcgrath Thanks to her thrifty lifestyle, Mia is planning to stop working 26 years before her peers. The Londoner who works in fashion regularly shares how she achieves her saving goals, and this time, she shared the habits to give up if you want to start saving. "Trying to be cool or aesthetic is making you broke," Mia said in a TikTok video posted this week. She went on to say that buying a new outfit or a £38 Rhode phone case to look 'aesthetically pleasing' on Instagram was a waste of money. Advertisement Mia admitted she used to do this before making a change. She said: "I realised I was doing it for other people, not for myself." The second mistake people make is following trends and fads that turn out to be very expensive. The savvy saver warned: "You don't need the latest trending item - a Labubu, a Coach bag. It's not essential." Advertisement Most read in Fabulous Exclusive She added: "I guarantee if you waited 30 days to buy it, you wouldn't want it anymore." The third financial mistake Mia identified is 'not saving because you think it's pointless '. Paychecks set to change for millions of Americans as new July law starts – see if switch is happening in your state She argued that no matter how small the amount, it was always worth doing. "I guarantee, if it's £10, £50, no matter how small it is, you're probably not doing it because of that reason," she reminded viewers. Advertisement Mia, who has accumulated 'almost £100,000 in savings and investments' in recent years, revealed that she also started small, even putting money aside when she was relying on a student maintenance grant. She continued: "I wouldn't have been able to do that if I had that mindset that saving £50 is pointless." Fourthly, Mia advocated for starting a side hustle , telling fellow TikTokers that they're 'not too busy' She said: "Stop using the excuse that you don't have enough time, you just don't want to enough." Advertisement She insisted: "Whatever it is, creating content, creating a personal brand, making extra money - I've done all those things while at a nine to five job that I have to be in the office five days a week for." Mia added that, providing someone wants to improve their finances, they can - it just takes discipline. Finally, Mia warned that it's irresponsible to think a 'man is going to sweep in' and facilitate the 'soft life' that some people crave. Mia said: "There is so much bad advice on TikTok saying you need to appear in your "soft feminine energy" and go sit at a bar where a rich man will find you..." Advertisement In a bid to do away with this myth, Mia said: 'You have to work hard and have your own money." Money saving challenges Here's some of our favourite money saving challenges. Weather saving challenge - Save the amount equal to whatever the highest temperature was that week. £1 = 1C. 1p challenge - save 1p a day for everyday of the year, but it increase the amount by 1p each day. So day one you save 1p, 2p on day two and 3p on day three. When you reach 100 days you start adding a £1 coin each day too, while this increases to a £2 coin each day plus pennies at 200 days, and £3 each day on top of pennies at day 300. 20p a day challenge - Start by putting 20p in savings, then increase the amount by 20p every day. For example, the first week will look like this: 20p, 40p, 60p, 80p, £1, £1.20, £1.40. £5 a week challenge - Like the 20p challenge, put aside £5 a week and increase it by a fiver each week. Eg £5, £10, £15, £20 Round-up challenge - Every time you buy something, round up the purchase to the nearest £1 and put the difference in a savings account. Eg. You pay £2.60, so you put 40p in savings. You can use an app such as Monzo or Starling to do this. Bingo challenge - Here you have a bingo card with different numbers on it and you tick them off when you've put that amount in your savings account. It can be ad hoc but you have to tick them all off by the end of the month. Monday to Sunday challenge - With this challenge, you simply save £1 on Monday, £2 on Tuesday and so on until the weekend where you don't save on Saturday or Sunday. 365 day challenge - Every Sunday you put aside £1, followed by £2 on Monday, £3 on Wednesday and so on. On Saturday you'll put away £7, and then the process repeats and you'll put aside £1 on Sunday as the new week begins The clip went viral on her TikTok account @ One person wrote: "The waiting 30 days is such a brilliant and helpful thing to do!" Another commented: "You're really genuine and I love you for that." Advertisement "Great points! It's so important to stay mindful of spending and focus on saving in the long run," penned a third. Meanwhile, a fourth said: "You're such good advice for the younger women out there." Read more on the Irish Sun "Very wise words,' claimed a fifth Someone else added: "Couldn't agree more."
