When the Duchess of Cambridge joined in a game of volleyball last week, the royal tummy was on display in all its svelte glory.
As
mothers marvelled at Kate’s lithe figure – 89 days since the birth of
George – there was widespread speculation about how she did it.
And it seems
that new mothers are so desperate to emulate the royal's toned tummy, that they are turning to fat-freezing treatments.
One Harley Street clinic has witnessed a staggering 650 per cent increase
in demand for fat-freezing tummy sculpting treatments.
Soon after the pictures of Kate's toned
stomach appeared in the press, there was a rush of young mothers calling
up the clinic for fat-freezing treatments.
The clinic has been taking 10
bookings a day from young mothers seeking a washboard stomach like
Kate's - and they expect to see 90 women booked in by the end of today.
The
treatment can cost as much as £1,000, claims to target hard to shift
post-pregnancy fatty deposits, which have been dubbed the dreaded
'mummy-tummy', by taking over two inches of fat off the waistline in one
session.
It
is thought that the 31-year-old Duchess of Cambridge got her trim
figure back with long walks with her dog, ante-natal yoga and rowing.
A spokesperson at the
LoveLite Harley Street clinic said: 'We started receiving an
unprecedented number of calls last Friday for tummy treatments and
almost all were from mothers who had recently given birth. We normally
make about 12 new bookings a week, but in less than two days we had 40.
'The
phone was ringing off the hook and there were quite a few bookings left
on voicemail over the weekend and the bookings have continued at the
rate of about 10 a day all through this week.
'We
usually ask callers what prompted them to seek out the treatment and on
Friday and over the weekend almost all said they wanted to get a flat
stomach like Kate's.
'Many
said they had failed to get their initial figure back after three
months - even with a good diet and fitness regime and now needed extra
help to shift the stubborn fatty area around their midriff.'
