14 DAY TRIAL // Kim Kardashian insists that she hasn’t had any work done on her face but otherwise there’s no accounting for the not-at-all-subtle changes it’s been going through these past few years. Sister Khloe seems to be stepping in her footsteps, judging by a photo she posted to her Instagram a few days ago.

Khloe didn’t upload it to boast of the new work she’d had done, but rather to show off her perfect styling and makeup, just like many female stars do on social media. However, most of those who saw it focused on something else, particularly on her very smooth and tight forehead, tight face and apparently plumper lips.
Khloe has said before that she would never give in to pressure, be it from social media or from her peers (including her mother, who told her at 9 she “needed” a nose job), and change her appearance but, if experts speaking to Radar Online are to be believed, she already has.
“Several reasons for this new slimmer and very different facial shape is: Botox to forehead and around eyes which can change brow position and overall eyebrow and eye shape; weight loss, and less cheek fillers than in the past,” Dr. Ashkan Ghavami, Beverly Hills plastic surgeon and assistant Clinical Professor at David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, says for the celebrity publication.
Dr. Ghavami has never treated Khloe. In fact, if we’re to make a wager, he doesn’t even know her.
He does concede that the effect of a drastically different appearance is also the result of a smart camera angle. “The photo is also taken from above which slims the face and she’s not smiling which makes the cheeks look flatter,” he adds.
“The lack of cheek accentuation now could be a result of all the above. The Botox amount seems extensive which gives the look you see. I always prefer more subtle Botox and fillers so that it keeps them guessing,” the expert continues.
The latest print issue of Star magazine is also running a story about how Khloe is ruining her face with so much Botox and fillers, just like Kim did. In her more recent TV appearances, the most famous of the Kardashian sisters can barely move her forehead and lips, and it is being said all the surgery and injections are to blame.
Hopefully, Khloe doesn’t end up walking down the same road, assuming she’s already gotten her start on it.
