Reality TV sensation Kylie Jenner unveiled a fresh look as she made an appearance in New York City on Monday.
The 27 year old star of Keeping Up with the Kardashians turned heads with her noticeably tight new look at the 2024 CFDA Awards held at the American Museum of Natural History. Some observers even questioned whether the mother-of-two could actually lift her newly shortened eyebrows.
Kylie, who is currently romantically linked to Timothee Chalamet, is no stranger to speculation about cosmetic procedures. The founder of Kylie Cosmetics spent years denying that her full lips were the result of any enhancements, before eventually confessing to using fillers.

Last year, the beauty tycoon disclosed that she had undergone breast augmentation at the age of 19, shortly before the birth of her daughter Stormi.
However, the 27 year old continues to firmly deny having any plastic surgery on her face and insists that she has not used any filler or Botox on her face. “I’m not against plastic surgery but as of now, I only have fillers. Like I’ve said before, it has always been a huge insecurity of mine and I wanted to make a change,” Kylie previously stated on her website.
In the wake of her recent appearance in New York, many social media users are questioning whether The Kardashians star’s stance on facial fillers and Botox has shifted. “The fact that Kylie Jenner is younger than me and already ruined her face with experimental fillers is bonkers to me,” one Twitter user commented.
Kylie Jenner has been at the center of a harsh social media storm, with one user savagely commenting, “Kylie Jenner looks so awful that filler and botox destroyed her face,” while another implored her via tweet: “Stop with the fillers You look old.”
Yet, some fans were quick to shield Kylie from the barbs, recalling her transparency regarding her feelings about her appearance.
During a heartfelt moment in a June episode of The Kardashians, Kylie opened up to her sisters about the buzz surrounding her alleged filler use post-Paris Fashion Week. She confided to them: “It’s a miracle I still have confidence and can still look in the mirror and still think I’m pretty.” Overwhelmed by emotion, she revealed to Kendall Jenner, “I went on a journey last year dissolving half of my lip filler.”
The reality star expressed frustration over the relentless commentary on her appearance saying: “I hate even having this conversation over and over and over again. It feels like it’s a waste of my breath because I think, with me, it is never going to change. People have been talking about my looks since I was 12 or 13 before I even got lip filler. I hear nasty things about myself all the time. I think it’s just after 10 years of hearing about it, it just gets exhausting”.
Kylie’s strut on the Paris Fashion Week runway last month ignited a storm of speculation among fans, with whispers suggesting that the celeb seemed to have ‘aged’ a touch. The new vibe she rocked was met with applause by many admirers, though some whispered she looked way beyond her years, pointing fingers at possible cosmetic tweaks.
A user took to Reddit, dropping a video and spilling their thoughts: “All that work she had done really aged her. I would also like to say I think she looks beautiful just a lot older than her age.”
Beauty expert Dr. Elif Benar from Dr. Elif Clinic revealed to The Mirror that wiping away all filler in one fell swoop can sling the face into a shocking shift of volume, leading to sagging or hanging skin, especially when the skin has been snuggly stretched by overfilling.
Dr Elif schooled us, asserting: “Gradually dissolving the filler allows the skin to adjust more naturally, minimizing the risk of unwanted changes in facial contour. It also provides an opportunity to address specific areas of concern and avoid an abrupt change in appearance.”
Though Kylie hasn’t confirmed that she ever got a facelift, Dr. Elif laid it out that getting nipped and tucked at such a tender age ain’t exactly top advicesans a legit medical or shape-related reason, that is. Facelifts are typically the go-to move for battling serious age telltales like drooping skina scene normally not scripted for folks chilling in their 20s.
An expert sounded the alarm for younger folks thinking about getting facelifts, warning of potential scarring, nerve damage, and “long-term changes” to skin elasticity. They issued a stark caution: “Additionally, having a surgical lift too early may result in the need for additional procedures in the future as natural ageing continues, possibly leading to an unnatural appearance.”
For the youth flirting with the idea of facial tweaks, the expert suggests sticking to non-surgical options like fillers, lasers, or radiofrequency treatments “to address minor concerns and maintain a youthful look.” But they’re waving a red flag about going overboard with fillers, which can lead to the dreaded “pillow face” where faces get that puffy, bloated vibe. Dr Elif chimed in with a critical point: “This occurs when the natural contours of the face are distorted, leading to a puffy or bloated look.”
