An annual survey by anti-bullying charity, Ditch The Label, found more than half of the teenagers who responded felt they had been bullied about their appearance.
One in two went on to say they wanted to change how they look, with 56% saying they wanted to lose weight, nearly one in five wishing they could have breast implants and 5% wanting Botox.
The survey spoke to teenagers across the UK and found teens as young as 13 are adding liposuction and breast implants to their wish lists.
Liam Hackett, founder and CEO of Ditch the Label, said the implications of appearance-based bullying are “significant” and can have “devastating, long-term impacts”.
