We get under the skin of the businesses trying to sell you a new look. Viral marketing has boosted the popularity of cosmetic surgery with social media platforms hosting an array of photos, videos, comments and recommendations. But there's a darker side, with the 'Brazilian butt lift' resulting in a number of fatalities. Dr Matthew Schulman, a New York-based plastic surgeon, says marketing through social media has shaken up his business over the last 10 years.

Presenter Manuela Saragosa speaks to reality TV star Natalee Harris, who had a botched surgery in Turkey, after a recommendation from a social media influencer. We hear from lawyer Cheryl Palmer Hughes, who has taken on a number of legal cases when procedures have gone wrong. She says the sector needs better regulation.
