Kerry Katona undergoes painful surgery to banish 'heavy looking' insecurity

Kerry Katona has gone under the knife once again to rid herself of "heavy" bags.

The star, who found fame as one-third of Atomic Kitten, is no stranger to cosmetic procedures and has always been honest about the work she's had done to her. Kerry, 43, revealed last year she wanted work done to her eyes after noticing they had started to become "heavy".

At the time, she said she was "entitled" to the operation and hasn't held back after raking in millions after joining the subscription platform OnlyFans, which saw her bank balance rocket after years of turmoil. Now, the star admits she's happy and embraces her body. This story below shows graphic content which some may find distressing.

Earlier this week, despite being excited, Kerry revealed that she was "s******g" herself ahead of the procedure. The mum-of-five will be unable to drive for around ten days after having Blepharoplasty (eyelid) surgery.

In exclusive images shared with the Mirror, Kerry can be seen being operated on by Mr Ullas Raghavan, who specialises in ear, nose and throat, as well as plastic surgery at Pall Mall Medical. Kerry is seen having her face marked at various points for Mr Raghaven to open during the surgery to provide the expected results.

Once under general anaesthetic, the singer's eyebrow is sliced open and then pinned back to lift her eyes, which she stated had been "heavy", leaving her unhappy. Later on, her eyelid was cut open, raised and then pulled back in order to give her a more youthful appearance.

Pall Mall states that people often take two weeks off work to recover from the procedure but will not be able to drive for several days. However, the bruising and redness may take several weeks to fade and the scarring could be tight for several months.

In November, Kerry said: "Right, so I've come to the conclusion I'm going to get an eye lift. I am, watch this. They're so heavy they're hanging over my eyes. Why not, I'm 43, I'm entitled." But despite her excitement, she wrote in her OK! Magazine column she was apprehensive before going under the knife once more.

She said: "I'm s******g myself. I'm really nervous, but I'm looking forward to having it done. I'm going to Pall Mall Medical and they've been really great, so it's exciting. I think the recovery period is 10 days and I won't be able to drive during that time." But she's not slowing down any time soon and has already booked her next cosmetic procedure.

"We have decided to do my nose surgery separately, so I'm hoping to get a date in soon for that too – it's all happening," she added. Previously, Kerry has opened up about having a non-surgical facelift, breast enhancements and reductions, liposuction and tummy tucks.

She first went under the knife in 2004 for a breast enhancement following her split from her first husband, ex-Westlife singer Brian McFadden. Speaking on the Net Mums podcast, she said: "I started out as a Page 3 model, I had a great set of t**s on me, I wasn't going to be a rocket scientist, that was my get out, I was a pretty girl, I used what god gave me. Half my body's not mine anyway. I've been sliced and diced so many bloody times I'm like a flat pack from Ikea."
