EXCLUSIVE: As she approaches her upcoming 35th birthday, Helen Flanagan admits she's never felt more confident after going under the knife for a cosmetic enhancement
Helen Flanagan admits she feels more confident after having her breasts surgically enhanced. The former Coronation Street actress is no stranger when it comes to showcasing her gym-honed physique on social media and posing in lingerie and swimsuits, but after having three children, Helen admits that her body has changed.
‌
In recent years, the 34-year-old who this week celebrates her birthday has spoken openly about her body, but after feeling like a "shadow of her former self," she made the decision to go under the knife, and is now feeling better than ever.
‌
However, a breast enhancement isn't the only surgery Helen has undergone in the past; it was previously claimed that the actress who found fame playing Rosie Webster on the ITV soap opera had undergone a nose job due to relentless trolling while she was in school. It comes after Helen opened up about the real reason she was selling her £1million home after claims she was broke.
‌
"After pregnancy and breastfeeding for three years, my boobs changed so much," Helen said about her boob job and transformation. She went on to add: "I think it's because I was quite big and bust before, it meant that they just sagged, I can't think of a better way to say it. This change affected my confidence, and I knew I wanted to do something about it."
Helen turned to Mr Ussain, a Consultant Breast Oncoplastic and Aesthetic Surgeon at Pall Mall Cosmetic's clinic in Manchester, and had a free consultation to discuss her options. She's one of a long list of famous faces, including Kerry Katona and Real Housewives of Cheshire star, Tanya Bardsley, who have turned to Pall Mall for their expertise.
‌
She continued: "I'd heard amazing things from lots of other mum friends who have had boob jobs at Pall Mall Cosmetics. I went with Mr Hussain, he's such a lovely man.
"I went for many consultations with lots of providers because I was really nervous, but ultimately I felt at ease with Mr Hussain and the team." In January of 2023, Helen underwent breast augmentation using 340cc Motiva implants, with dual plane placement, meaning they went under and over the breast muscle, to give more volume and a more natural shape.
‌
Speaking of her results, she said: "I couldn't be happier with my results, I love them. I am all for body confidence, empowering other women and supporting other women in their decisions that they decide to make."
Helen was also up and about rapidly after her surgery. She said: "I was back on my feet before I knew it. I think it's because I opted for 50/50 under and over the muscle. I wanted supernatural results, just for them to be perk again, and that's what I got."
‌
But while some people frown over cosmetic enhancements and tweakments, the actress isn't paying any attention to people who disagree with her decision. She commented: "I am all for body confidence… and supporting other women in their decisions that they decide to make."
It comes after Helen opened up about life as a single mum following her split from Robbie Talbot, and how she and her ex, Scott Sinclair, are co-parenting their children. "I'm concentrating on the kids, work, moving house and being with my friends," she told the Mirror.
Reflecting on her life while co-parenting, she said: "But on the whole, we can actually be in the same room together. He's the father of my children; I was with him since I was 19 and I'm always going to have love for him – but it doesn't mean we want to be together. I don't have any bad feelings towards Scott, though sometimes he drives me absolutely mad."
