Kerry Katona has revealed she is ready to start her New Year with another facelift as she plans a lower facelift.
The former Atomic Kitten star, 44, said she is “nervous” about the procedure, but has turned to her surgery-obsessed friend Katie Price for guidance and “moral support.”
Katie, 46, has long been known for her love of going under the knife and has undergone numerous procedures over the years, including facelifts, breast augmentation and rhinoplasty.

Talking about her upcoming plans, Kerry explained: “I have my lower facelift in January, which I’m excited about, but I’m also really nervous.”
“I always get very nervous when it comes to having something done to my face, but I know it will be worth it.”

The former Atomic Kitten star, 44, said she is “nervous” about the procedure, but has turned to her surgery-obsessed friend Katie Price for guidance and “moral support.”
With the help of his friend, he continued: ‘Katie is coming to stay with me when I finish it to give me moral support, which I really appreciate.
“She’s had the procedure before, so she knows what I’ll be going through and will be able to ease my nerves and anxiety, while also helping me through my recovery.”
She added: “Katie is in a really good place mentally right now and it’s amazing to see, I’m so proud of her.” “She has been a real pillar of support for me these last few months.”
A lower facelift, known as a jowl lift, is a procedure “designed to reduce sagging skin around the lower half of the face (mainly the jowls) and neck,” according to the NHS, and is designed to address signs of aging.
Kerry and Katie first formed a close friendship in 2024, when they appeared on the third series of I’m A Celebrity, with Katie finishing in fifth place while Kerry won the show.
As well as helping her through surgery, Katie has been by Kerry’s side over the festive period and will be spending New Year’s Eve with her best friend following Kerry’s heartbreaking split from fiancé Ryan Mahoney.
This is not the first time Kerry has gone under the knife or hired an aesthetic professional to alter her appearance.
Last month, she hit back at cruel trolls after they criticized her recent lip touch-up and compared her to a “duck.”

Both Katie and Kerry have undergone numerous cosmetic procedures throughout their 20 years of friendship (pictured in 2004).
The former singer headed to Oxford Natural Clinic to complete her lip filler.
A clip of the process was shared on Instagram where Kerry could be seen in a reclining treatment chair while receiving the “natural” treatment.
While in July, Kerry revealed plans for her fourth boob job while also opening up about her upcoming facelift.
She said OK! at the time: ‘I’d really like a lower facelift, to give me that chiseled jawline. And now I also want a boob job. I feel like my breasts are at the height of my knees!’
In June, the star looked drastically different after revealing the results of her recent nose job that left her in tears.
Kerry underwent surgery to repair the damage she caused during years of drug abuse, but was left distraught when the operation caused her to no longer look like her biological father.
Kerry previously revealed that she would have a rib removed to make her new nose and that it would be used to replace cartilage “to make it look a little smaller.”

She only saw her daughter once in her life, during a meeting with Kerry’s mother, Sue, when Kerry was just two months old.
