The wife of boxing champion , 36, appeared on the Netmums podcast this week, where she spoke candidly about the growing pressure on young girls to look 'perfect' amid the rise of social media.
Speaking with and Netmums Editorial Director Louise Burke, Paris said social media plays a massive part in how young people view themselves.
She said: 'It's there 24 hours of the day. Years ago, when I was young, it was a magazine and a newspaper. You could only ever look at a magazine or a movie. It wasn't in your face 24/7.'
Concerned about the overuse of filters, she continued: 'I (tell Venezuela), you don’t need a filter, baby. You don’t need it.
'When young kids are looking at this false image all the time, everyone has these big lips on the filters, and everyone has the perfect face and the perfect nose.'

The wife of boxing champion Tyson Fury, 36, appeared on the Netmums podcast this week, where she spoke candidly about the growing pressure on young girls to look 'perfect' amid the rise of social media
Believing parents have a responsibility to build their children's confidence rather than allowing them to have procedures, she said: 'If Venezuela came to me and said, I don't like this, I don't like that on my face.
'I'm like, don't be so stupid, don't be so silly, you're fine. Reinstall that and don't be like, yeah, let's get lip filler, let's get you a nose job. It's your job to try and build up confidence instead of fixing the problem.'
Elsewhere in the interview, Paris said that even her eight-year-old daughter has become self conscious.
She continued: 'I’ve got my daughter, who’s eight. She says "I’ve got hair on my arms, I’ve got hairy arms." And it’s like, baby hair, everybody has that. It’s normal, it’s nothing wrong.'
It comes as the UK government has inviting young people and their parents and guardians to submit comments ahead of a government decision.
The debate over a minimum age for social media use has been fired up by Australia's decision last year to ban children from a range of platforms including Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube and TikTok.
Technology Secretary Liz Kendall said the public consultation would help establish how young people could 'thrive in an age of rapid technological change.'

The former Love Island star spoke about the constant pressure she feels to look good and the impact negative comments have on her mental health.
She also reflected on her younger years, which saw the YouTuber experiment with facial fillers and Botox, saying a viral image of her flaunting an enlarged pout and defined jawline sparked an influx of trolling including being compared to an XBOX controller.
Speaking on Behind It All, Molly said: 'I think having Bambi made me go on a real journey about my body. I have days where I get up and I don't feel great.

After experiencing natural changes in her body including having 'wider hips' and 'stretch marks', Molly admitted she had to learn to love herself again postpartum.
But Molly's sister Zoe said the star's insecurities are deep-rooted and she has suffered with low confidence from a young age.
Zoe said: 'For as long as I can remember her appearance is something Molly has really struggled with... she had this fame come out of the blue and all these fresh eyes on her.'
From the age of 16, Molly used makeup and facial fillers to alter her appearance and now admits her obsession to 'look like everybody else' was 'unhealthy.'
Molly explained: 'You think that all the makeup and the filler make you look better but actually it makes you look ten times worse.
'I was about 16/17 when I started getting filler. It was a slippery slope. People say I looked like an XBOX controller or a Quagmire, but I don't know what that is.
'It definitely felt like something that I needed to do to look like everybody else that was on Instagram which was really unhealthy.
'I look at those pictures and I feel quite sorry for myself. It just spiralled really. I tried to think it looked good, but it really didn't and then luckily, it was reversible.'
