SHIRLEY Ballas has had a facelift... but there was Strictly no nipping and tucking involved.

The Strictly Come Dancing head judge, 64, said the hi-tech treatment has given her a "new lease of life".

Shirley has been seeing top Harley Street cosmetic doctor Johanna Ward for a series of non-invasive procedures to rejuvenate her face and neck.

The BBC star said: "I have to say that I think these treatments have shaved 30 years off me.

"It has made me feel so confident and comfortable in my own skin. There's a famous Beatles song that goes, "Will you still need me, will you still feed me when I'm 64'.

"Well, I turned 64 last week and I feel like I've got a new lease of life.
