In a recent episode of The Kardashians, Kylie Jenner opened up about regretting getting breast implants at the age of 19, and many fans commended her transparency. On Instagram this week, some fans have been analyzing older photos from her sister Kendall‘s earlier career days, and debating whether or not the supermodel underwent the same surgical endeavor.
Other social media users are stressing that a difference in Kendall’s style and natural aging might be leading to the 818 Tequila mogul’s different-looking appearance, but many are still divided. This all began in the comment section of a new post under the popular Instagram account @celebface (where fans often compare photos of celebrities that might have gone under the knife).
Did Kendall Undergo The Same Surgical Endeavor As Her Sister Kylie? Some Fans Think So
The post was composed of shots from Kendall's early modeling days and more recent pics. Many commenters began pointing out that Kendall looked different in one particular area.
"Definitely implants," one wrote, as another replied that there isn't anything "wrong" with getting them, just that the Kardashians often "lie about their procedures" and claim to be "fully natural."
Someone else wrote: "I’m not against plastic surgery and think she looks great, but it is good to get a reality check once in a while to not develop beauty standards you can’t achieve naturally." Another agreed and chimed in: "Great result, fits her body." This also isn't the first time that fans have accused Kendall of getting work done (from her lips to her nose), but she has adamantly denied ever undergoing the knife.
Kendall addressed plastic surgery speculation in 2017 after she was spotted sporting a plumper pout on Instagram, which became a major topic of conversation.
She explained to fans: "All of a sudden, photos of us came out with headlines like, 'OMG Kendall got her lips done and got full facial reconstruction—look at her cheekbones, look at her nose!' I was like, this is CRAZY. I didn't even address it at the time. Because if I address it, people are going to be like, 'Oh, so she's defending herself—she must be guilty.'"
The Kardashians star also pointed out that since she was a working supermodel, getting surgery to change her face wouldn't really benefit her career.
"As a model, why would I have my face reconstructed?" she argued. "It doesn't even make sense. It's crazy because sometimes I feel like people just want me to lose."
Kylie Jenner Opens Up About Regretting Breast Implants At A Young Age In New Kardashians Episode
As for Kylie, on the other hand, many fans are praising her honesty after she got candid about plastic surgery in a new episode of Hulu's The Kardashians.
In the July 27th episode of the family's reality series, Kylie reflected on breast augmentation and shared how motherhood made her look at her past choices in a different light.
The Kylie Cosmetics founder revealed that she "got my breasts done" when she was 19, just before giving birth to her first child, daughter Stormi.
She told her friend Anastasia Karanikolaou: "I just wish I never got them done to begin with. (I) would recommend anyone who is thinking about it to wait until after children."
Kylie added: "I have a daughter too. I would be heartbroken if she wanted to get her body done at 19."
The Kylie Skin mogul went on: "I want to be the best mom and best example for her. I wish I could be her and do it all differently, ‘cause I wouldn’t touch anything."
Earlier in the season, Kylie and her sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Khloé Kardashian discussed how societal beauty standards have shaped their own perspectives on body image.
"I just feel like we have a huge influence," Kylie said in an earlier episode, acknowledging that she got fillers several years back. "What are we doing with our power? I just see so many young girls on the internet now fully editing (photos of themselves). I went through that stage too, and I feel like I'm in a better place, but other people can instill insecurities in you."
