According to a recent survey, 76% of people would be unhappy having a photograph taken of them, due to dissatisfaction with their appearance.
It was also uncovered that 66% of 30-39 year old respondents were unhappy with their appearance.
Being unhappy with their appearance prevented 32% of women from posting on social media, and 27% of men from going on a date.
Over a fifth of participants felt that appearing to have aged affected their confidence, and 69% stated that facial sagging and wrinkles ages a person the most. However 80% would not consider having surgery, mainly due to cost and safety concerns.
