Khloé Kardashian has candidly addressed speculation surrounding her appearance by outlining her history with cosmetic procedures.
Betteridge noted a dramatic transformation in her appearance, attributing it to several cosmetic enhancements, including a temporal brow lift, rhinoplasty, lip fillers and face and neck lifts.

Kardashian confirmed the speculations, saying: "I take this as a great compliment!"
She then provided an extensive list of the procedures she has undergone, alongside the names of the professionals who assisted her.
'First off, I think these photos are about 15 years apart ... I've been very open in the past about what I have done, so here we go," she said, before detailing her experiences with surgery and ongoing beauty treatments.
According to Kardashian, her journey includes:
A rhinoplasty was performed by Dr Raj Kanodia.
Laser hair removal at Sev Laser Aesthetics.
Botox and Sculptra injections to manage the area following the removal of a facial tumour.
Soft wave laser treatments for skin tightening.
Fillers in the past, without any recent use.
Collagen baby threads to enhance her chin and neck.
Regular salmon sperm facials, peptides, vitamins and a dedicated skincare regimen.
Additionally, she shared her remarkable weight loss journey, having shed 36 kgs steadily with the guidance of her coach, Joe Paris.
She cheekily continued: "In 2025, there are many other things we can do before surgery, but when it's time, and if I choose to, I know some great doctors 😉💞."
Kardashian's procedures follow a broader pattern in which celebrities are becoming more open about their cosmetic modifications.
As noted online by Dr Lara Devgan, a celebrity plastic surgeon, the dialogue around beauty has shifted towards empowerment and authenticity, with public figures reclaiming their narratives and acknowledging the professional efforts behind their appearances.
Kardashian's openness comes at a time when her sister, Kylie Jenner, has also shared specifics of her cosmetic journey, furthering the Kardashian-Jenner clan's commitment to transparency in the world of beauty.

The Poosh founder shared a carousel of images on Instagram last Friday, giving fans a glimpse of her holiday-filled life with her family, when a fan commented that there are rumours that Kardashian-Baker is expecting another child. The fan wrote: 'RUMOURS HAVE IT THAT YOU'RE PREGNANT KOURTNEY.'

Next Stay Close ✕ This is not the first time that the media personality was rumoured to be expecting her second child with Travis Baker. Just last month, the mother of four was rumoured to be pregnant after she shared pictures from her holiday in Italy and included a picture of her in a bikini, which prompted fans to comment on her body, saying that she is expecting again. The Lemme co-founder replied: 'Or breastfeeding, eating gelato, focaccia, pasta, not working out and living my best damn life, baby!' 'The Kardashians" star and her husband welcomed Rocky, their first child together, in November 2023. She also has three older children with her ex, Scott Disick: sons Mason, 15, Reign, 10, and daughter Penelope, 13. Kardashian-Baker is by far the only celebrity to have been open about her postpartum body and not conforming to the 'snap-back' culture that has gained popularity among celebrity moms and has also created certain notions and expectations for new moms. In 2024, the reality TV star penned a heart-warming letter to all the moms out there about the pressures of bouncing back after pregnancy. She wrote: 'Dear new mommies, your body is beautiful at all stages. During pregnancy, as we are glowing and growing, postpartum, as we are healing and shrinking, and then that period I find the hardest as our bodies are still adjusting.'

Anthony Hopkins playfully mocks Kim K's new product
At 87, British acting legend Sir Anthony Hopkins has playfully taken a jab at Kim Kardashian's latest Skims launch, the Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap. The new product, retailed at around R900 (USD 48 converted), is designed to sculpt the jawline using collagen-infused fabric. It fastens around the chin, neck, and ears, according to Page Six. Anthony Hopkins posted a remarkable Instagram video echoing his chilling 1991 character Hannibal Lecter from The Silence of the Lambs . In the clip, he dons the face wrap in a clay colour and wittily quips, 'Hello Kim, I'm already feeling 10 years younger. Goodbye.' He then mimics his famous slurping of fava beans and Chianti, a dark nod to Lecter's character. The actor cheekily invites Kardashian, saying, 'Thank you, Kim. Don't be afraid to come over for dinner.' Anthony Hopkins' video quickly went viral, amassing millions of views and drawing praise for his sharp humour. Actress Gwyneth Paltrow called it 'genius,' while fans appreciated the blend of nostalgia and wit. One fan joked, 'Are you having Kim for dinner???' while another celebrated Hopkins as a 'great actor with a great sense of humour.' Kardashian herself shared the post on her Instagram story, revealing she was 'screaming' with laughter over the tribute. The Skims Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap promises to be an effective tool for those seeking non-surgical face sculpting. It featured Velcro closures for comfort and ease. Despite mixed reactions online, many fans intrigued by beauty and wellness innovations might find the technology appealing. The product's launch coincides with growing interest in face-lifting alternatives amid rising surgical costs and a desire for less invasive beauty routines. Kim K has made a name for herself through bold, inventive products. She previously released popularity-driving items like the nipple bra and butt-enhancing shorts. She has stated, 'I love being able to push boundaries and bring humour to our campaigns' while encouraging people to 'look and feel their best.' The Skims face wrap continues in this spirit, combining fashion with function and a wink to popular culture. South African beauty enthusiasts often seek accessible and effective skincare and shaping products, making this an interesting addition to the market. With an approximate price of R900, it occupies a middle ground between affordable beauty tools and luxury skincare. Several fans have joked that Kardashian's creation is 'because we all can't afford face lifts.' This reflects a wider conversation around beauty standards and accessibility. As one follower noted, 'This is getting weird, how are we normalising this?' Another tempered the mood with humour, saying, 'We're not going to make it, are we? Humans, I mean.' These sentiments speak to the cultural impact of celebrity influence in shaping beauty trends. Hopkins' inventive endorsement highlights the merging of Hollywood culture with beauty entrepreneurship. It enriches the global conversation about ageing, self-care, and playful marketing. Let us know by leaving a comment below, or send a WhatsApp to 060 011 021 1.
