Breast implants, nose jobs and facelifts - these are some of thecosmetic procedures women in the UK would undergo to please the menin their lives.

But the theory - based on the findings of a study by sociologylecturer Dr Debra Gimlin - has been rubbished by ladies in theNorth-east.

As revealed in yesterday's Evening Express, the University ofAberdeen research showed that British women were likely to have theops to suit the desires of a particular man, while their Americancounterparts did it for themselves.

But when our Evening Express reporter took to the streets to askwomen about the findings, fashionable females in the city put therecord straight.

Public relations student Matilda-Claire Blaauw, 23, said: "Iwouldn't have surgery for a man."

She added that if she did it, it would be for her own benefit.

The Old Aberdeen resident, who said she wouldn't mind a slimmerjaw line, added: "I think that if you had plastic surgery the wholeof your life would be improved."

Kamella Kefli, 25, from Aberdeen's West End and also a PR student,echoed her thoughts.

She said: "I would maybe get my breasts done, but only after I hadchildren.

"But it wouldn't be for a man, it would be for me."

But occupational therapist Emelie Fyvie had a different opinion.

The 25-year-old, from Fraserburgh, said: "I wouldn't have cosmeticsurgery unless it was reconstructive.

"I'm really happy with the way I look."
