Kendall Jenner is often regarded as the most natural of the Kardashian/Jenner family; and while that may still be the case when compared to what her sisters and parents have allegedly had done over the years, it doesn’t mean that she hasn’t had her fair share of *rumored* cosmetic procedures and plastic surgeries too!
Thanks to some recent pictures which have been doing the rounds, the 26-year-old 818 Tequila founder has just sparked fresh speculation that she has had work done on her face – including fillers, Botox, and perhaps even more permanent procedures too – which is even more apparent when side by side before and after pictures are closely examined. (Although it doesn’t even have to be that close, as the differences are obvious from a very long distance too!)
Perhaps the most obvious change to the catwalk model's face has to be her lips, as they have gotten undeniably more voluminous than what they used to be. And there's only so much credit that can be given to lip liner! Kendall denied having lip fillers way back in 2017, telling fans that her dramatically plumper pout was down to her beauty mogul younger sister Kylie Jenner doing her makeup, and expertly lining her lips to perfection.
As part of her defense, she also said that she wouldn’t dare mess with her face given her profession! "As a model, why would I have my face reconstructed? It doesn’t even make sense," Jenner, who is one of the highest paid models in the world, said at the time. However, many fans have speculated that, akin to younger sis Kylie who denied it for so many years before finally coming clean, Kendall has also undergone lip fillers, and the excuse of simply overlining her lips in addition to other clever makeup techniques is no longer cutting it.
Several fans took to Reddit to comment on a picture of the former Keeping Up with the Kardashians star at this year's Super Bowl, and let's just say that most users were in agreement that Kylie-esque lip fillers were the only possible explanation for the appearance of her lips. They were also unanimous in their thoughts that Jenner's lips looked better before her alleged and as yet unconfirmed procedures.
"Why does this give 'toddler who stole their moms lipstick and went to town' vibes," one Reddit user wrote, while another hinted that she looked much better with thinner lips, while also adding that she was now morphing into her younger sister. They wrote: "I personally think Kendall looked way better with her old lips. Anyone else think so? I thought thinner lips really suited her and now it’s hard to tell her apart from Kylie!" Many users agreed that Kendall was a natural beauty who didn’t need any extra work done to her face, with one user speculating that her new look was about so much more than lip fillers, writing, "Agreed. She’s been looking different lately, too much filler? She’s naturally stunning. She really needs to stop now."
As per the last comment, it isn’t just Kendall's lips which are seemingly contributing to her drastically different appearance. As well as allegedly having many bouts of facial filler, it's also been widely speculated by fans and plastic surgeons (none of whom have confessed to working on Jenner, of course) that she may have had work on her nose too, either by way of a full rhinoplasty, or something less invasive such as fillers to change the shape and size, as the difference is extremely obvious. Especially to industry professionals!
"The lower lateral cartilage outline in the tip can be seen clearly and appears to have been reduced," certified plastic surgeon Dr. Alessi told Life & Style. "The nasal bridge appears to be smaller. This is more than one would expect with just makeup and smiling." Industry professionals have also speculated that the model may have had a brow lift back in 2020, as the suddenly more obvious arch in her brows was getting harder to ignore. However, experts believe that a blepharoplasty might not be the only explanation, as she may have had a less-invasive thread lift instead, which is a non-surgical treatment that involves a dissolvable thread being inserted into the face to lift and pull up the skin. Yikes!
