She could've gotten sugery done and then signed up for the swim suit model. That is also a possibility.
She did leave home and went to tokyo at an early age so her mom can't control her if she lived on her own and who knows, maybe her mom did let her at an early age :S
I personally don't know for sure if she did plastic surgery, but i think she did. I'm not saying its because she's ugly, but maybe she wanted bigger eyes, or a nicer nose. Just to finish little touches to look perfect.

Rhinoplasty is typically $3000-$6000, I think that is WAY too much for a little 14-17 year old girl to be able to afford, even just with a job. Due to child labor laws teens in high school are only allowed to work part time which is typically 5 hours. I'm sure our child labor laws do not differ THAT greatly from Japan's, so I still think it's too much for her pre-debut self to be able to afford.
As for blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), it typically runs about $2,500 which I think is still too much for pre-debut Ayu to have afforded.
I'm not saying you have to be rich to get plastic surgery, but I'm pretty sure it was too much for Ayu to afford before her debut.
I may be wrong, but minimum wage in Japan is about ~$6.40 now. Meaning if she was working part time she would be making about $32 a day. Five days a week = $160. Keep in mind she still had to afford food and transportation as well.
I'm sorry but I just don't see her being able to afford it back then...
