Kendall Jenner Has Something To Say About Those Plastic Surgery Breakdown Videos
Kendall Jenner has been consistent in how she’s approached media and internet speculation about the work she may or may not have had done: with total silence. That’s all changed, with the model getting candid about plastic surgery rumors, beauty treatments, and social media’s dissection of her looks.
Jenner joined Owen Thiele on the January 9 edition of his podcast, In Your Dreams, where their conversation ranged from her first modeling jobs and growing up famous, to her hypochondria, anxiety, and beauty regimen.
“I swear to God, I’ve done two rounds of baby Botox in my forehead [and] that’s it,” she told Thiele, putting many a rumor about “total facial reconstruction” to bed. “[That’s] the only thing I’ve ever injected.”
She also shared how she’s been upkeeping her skin after years of adult cystic acne. “My favorite things are skin rejuvenation,” she said. Jenner cited platelet-rich plasma microneedling as a particular favorite. “I’ve been doing that for a long time because of my acne scars.” Also known as the “vampire facial,” famously, Jenner’s sister Kim Kardashian was among the first celebrity endorsements for the practice, sharing photos of her bloodied face during a treatment. Hailey Bieber also repped PRP when she featured on the pod. And while it looks dramatic, it shows benefits in promoting tissue regeneration and stimulating collagen, like Jenner alludes to.
Jenner used the plasma injections to further tackle “fine lines,” too: “I’ve injected that into my crow’s feet and my laugh lines.”
“I’m not going to sit here and convince anyone that I haven’t had work,” she continued. “There’s a whole world on the internet that thinks I’ve had full facial reconstruction. “I’m just here to tell you the truth, which is the fact that I’ve never had any plastic surgery on my face. Nothing. I’ve never had any work done.”
It’s refreshing to hear such candid admissions from Jenner, from a family that has shaped and defined beauty standards for well over a decade to their monetary benefit. It also sees Jenner following the lead of her sisters, who have been more open about sharing their own procedures. Kylie Jenner, for one, detailed (down to the implant size) her own breast augmentation in a TikTok comment.
Regarding the two treatments of baby Botox in her forehead, Jenner said she “didn’t love it.” “I consider it sometimes, but then my eyebrows are so straight and low to my eyes that I actually really enjoy the movement that I have,” she said.
