Kendall Jenner Instagram Picture Leads to Plastic Surgery Speculation
Kendall Jenner is at the center of a growing controversy regarding rumors that she underwent plastic surgery after a picture of her posted to her Instagram account went viral.
Jenner, 17, showed off full lips in the picture, which has led to speculation. Even reputable plastic surgeones are disagreeing over whether she went under the knife or if it was just a really good makeup job.
"Some teens, even at 18-year-old maturity are born with very [thin] lips… Then [it is] totally appropriately to conservatively augment the upper and/or lower lips with small amounts of Restylane, which is what it looks like she had," Barry Weintraub told Fox News.
However, other doctors aren't so entirely convinced.
"It doesn't appear that anything invasive has been done," said Dr. Raffi Hovespian, a Triple Board Certified plastic surgeon. "This look can be attributed to pouting, lip gloss and lip plumper, which are more appropriate 'enhancements' for her age."
Kendall and her younger sister have made other headlines recently after reports stated that they both had attended an age-restricted club.
Kendall, 17, and Kylie, 16, attended Vignette lounge in West Hollywood, Calif. where patrons are supposed to be at least 21 years old. However, the management from the club told TMZ that the establishment was strict with checking identification and that the two girls in question presented the appropriate IDs.
The publication describes the club as "a new, voyeuristic, hip hop and nudity nightclub experience." A representative from the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control told TMZ that an investigation might be launched if the establishment and Jenner sisters broke the law.
While TMZ insists that the Jenner girls were partying in a nightclub while underage, the manager of the establishment said he did recognize the people in question as the Jenners.
The Jenner camp has yet to speak about the accusations, but both sisters have previously admitted that living under the spotlight is not always easy.
