Although fewer women in their 50s say they feel "very confident" about their bodies compared to women ages 18 to 49, only 33 percent would consider any form of plastic surgery — and only 5 percent of those who would consider surgery would consider breast augmentation.

Considering plastic surgery decreased as women aged: Only 21 percent of women in their 60s said they would consider it, and only 12 percent of those in their 70s.

The findings came from a British study by JD Williams in association with YouGov that studied women to discover their attitudes about themselves and aging.

The older women said their stomachs were the area of their bodies they had the most negative feelings about (64 percent), followed by upper arms (35 percent) and thighs (28 percent).

Regardless of their level of confidence in their bodies, 94 percent of women aged 50 and older felt younger than their age. More than 9 in 10 (91 percent) said their biggest fear of the future was health problems associated with aging, especially those that would make them dependent on others.

The study revealed that concerns over weight remain strong even as women age — 57 percent said they would like to lose weight.

The biggest advantage to growing older, they said, was more leisure time (52 percent). They revealed that compliments boosted their confidence more than anything, followed by getting a haircut and wearing a new outfit.

When looking for a partner, humor outranked anything else (81 percent), followed by intelligence (66 percent). Finances lagged far behind at 9 percent.

As a group, the over-50s didn't feel the media represented their age group either in television or magazines. Sixty-one percent felt their age group was forgotten by fashion designers, and 66 percent said they would like to see more fashion choices designed for their age group.
